Anybody, have video or a cd of these bikes kicking A** on the track (back in the day)

This is one of my favorites the king Joey Dunlop IOM TT on a early V4, turn the sound up nice engine music.

I had Barracks watch the other night so I downloaded all the video's and watched them, best 8 hour watch I ever stood I lost track of time so many times it was a shame. This was some good history. The newer bikes are just not that exciting.

 

'You have a lot of problems with birds'...! A great line there.

Thanks for posting the web link captb. This is some must see TV.

 

This is a good vid of IOM TT Gloucester Team Kawasaki's Honda RC30 Alan Warner, still makes me laugh a Kawasaki Team running a 6 year old Honda.

To find the racing videos go to: Google and type in (Honda vfr whateverRACING) you will see many videos to look at.

 

Another great video. Thanks for the post!

 

That kind of track with brick walls and all the other stuff looks like a good way to die if you make even one mistake.

Man, that Rainey vs Schwantz race was simply amazing. Seeing them race like that, who needs fat tires? Definitely makes me rethink of the real value these VFR's really have.

 

The little RC45 is up against the Yamaha 1000cc Motor of Death... the R1 sets a new lap record but will Joey Dunlop win???

All those vids are great. I remember watching some of those guys back then at Mid Ohio. One thing that sticks out are the lean angles. They don't lean as far as the bikes today. Radial vs bias-ply tires make a big difference. It was great seeing Dan Chivington #53 in a couple of those vids. I haven't seen him in eons.

 

A great video! Thank you for the post.
