Really enjoyed that Dave, many thanks for these as they give us a great insight of what’s going on behind the scenes. Wishing you the very best,for a safe & successful TT. 😀👍
This is brilliant Dave, Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and preparations. Just discovered this channel and my only regret is that I didnt do it earlier. I wish you the best of luck and ride fast but safe. Greetings from Sweden 🇸🇪
Great vlog Dave. Glad to see everything is going well for you. Thank you for bringing us behind the scenes. Wish you all the best for the races. Stay safe. Good luck.
Watching here in the US on TT All Access video pass and saw Dave fly by a couple of times. Really cool as it feels like I know that guy. Thanks for the insight Dave, ride safe and enjoy.
Hi Dave another great one. This is now compulsive viewing and as much as I love watching the top riders I would love to see those racing at a lower level & if the major broadcasters cannot do that then perhaps they could still feature riders such as yourself in interviews. After all looking at my TT2012 Dean wasn't at the level he is now. Loving the banter between you Gary & Rob. Isn't Only Fans admission to the Paddock tee he ! and has Gary ever thought about doing the knowledge ! I won't dwell on it but its just got tougher with the loss of Mark but hopefully his family's statement will help you continue to race. Best wishes Dave Ted
Looking at these real and modest people not asking for much is so refreshing and restores my faith in human beings which always wilts after looking at any of the two pedal press button four wheel Formula 1 shows. I suppose biscuits against caviar.
I think only fans is a retailer of cooling devices (they look a bit like small propellers) When the dust has settled any chance of a video about the cost of entering the T.T. or would that be too scary?
its not all in the hardware....... i think 80% is concentration and control your fear and ofcourse riderskills... lets say...Harrison is top 5 on every bike... so talented..
@obsession_engineering Cheers Dave .. I asked this as I learnt my lesson doing MGP2013 on a R6 that lasted practice week and Jnr Race till it blew up on lp3 in Kirk Michael.. went back in 2015 with TGR on a CBR to complete 2 Race finishes.. I've followed you for years Dude. Much love .. 🇿🇦
Ah now l see so the riguers of the TT course necessitates the considered mounting of electrical gubbins. Like a boxers brain suffers from a blow which causes disorientation to the sensory perceptions of balance and hence control of the body?
In these highly advanced , computer controlled times, with all the answers ~ do they still pay respects at the Fairey Bridge ??? If you don't you are stuffed
@@obsession_engineering I only did the Manx once, fell asleep on our trip to the Bridge , and something that's impossible happened, while I was leading on the road ~ cost me the NewComers
You need to go and see it for yourself and you become immersed in the atmosphere. The respect that you get for the likes of Dave and Mark is immeasurable. Respect for the legends of the roads 🙌
@@marsmellow1589 It's a disc, part of a disc brake system, not a rotor brake system, at least it was in the many years I've been mucking around with vehicles.

A more interesting series watch than the 'Honda sponsored' itv4 TT 'previews'
Long live the Beast Cliff Barton RIP
Most enjoyable Dave.
lol you want flies . come down downunder .some are the size of a small Cessna. 😜
'disgruntled otter' haha quality

When the dust has settled any chance of a video about the cost of entering the T.T. or would that be too scary?
I may well include that in a round up video... Then you'll see me cry! 😁
Great video
its not all in the hardware....... i think 80% is concentration and control your fear and ofcourse riderskills... lets say...Harrison is top 5 on every bike... so talented..
Fully agree, the rider is still the biggest factor by far
@@obsession_engineering succes Dave! Greetz from Holland
I would suggest Concentration is more like 95%. Did the Manx, missed the Newcomers by a fluke
Stay upright dude
Loving the mudguard on yours and Eric's twins. Are they unobtainium parts?!?!
Those Jolly carbon parts are jolly nice 😁
Insane
Nice very insighful
Fab video, love the style. Just got to ask, I’m a watch fanatic aswell, what make is it? Scratching my head! Regards
Christopher Ward C11 pro
I have been watching for you on live coverage, but every time there is a glimpse they pan away.
How come you didn't do the Superbike race today Dave? Mechanical gremlins? Stay safe and good luck for the rest of the meeting 🤞🇮🇲🏍🏁
annoyingly not in the top 50 fastest so didn't make the grid
@@obsession_engineering OMG!!! So sorry, frustrating doesn't come close I bet. Fingers crossed for the rest of the meeting, onwards and upwards 🤞🤞🤞
WHY IS IT ORANGE!!!!
Ledjond pal
Dave .. how many Big bike engines did you take with you? .. 1 in bike 1 spare? .. kind regards Colin
Yep, usually just one engine spare per bike, occasionally I'd have 2 spares for a 600. Only ever needed all the spares once, that year was expensive 🤣
@obsession_engineering Cheers Dave .. I asked this as I learnt my lesson doing MGP2013 on a R6 that lasted practice week and Jnr Race till it blew up on lp3 in Kirk Michael.. went back in 2015 with TGR on a CBR to complete 2 Race finishes.. I've followed you for years Dude. Much love .. 🇿🇦
Throttle glitch: 'Gyro mount'? explain please.
If the gyro/imu is getting confused it may cut the ignition and feel like a throttle drop off

What tires are you running on the supertwin ?
Dunlop D213 Pro, ms1 front ms2 rear 120/180
@@obsession_engineering thanks mate . good luck , ride fast but be safe

I always go to visit the fairies!
@@obsession_engineering I only did the Manx once, fell asleep on our trip to the Bridge , and something that's impossible happened, while I was leading on the road ~ cost me the NewComers
I don't know how people like going to this event knowing that most likely a rider will get killed! This event would NEVER be allowed where I live!

put the foam on your helmet... your helmet moves. the tank does not
Now that is a practical idea, I like it!
Mexico?
Baja International tourist cup and San Pedro hillclimb
Great earlier video from the Obsession archives!
" Brake rotor" wtf is that ? looks like a disc to me.
Carrier inside, rotor outside 😁
Rotor is just a name for rotating parts in machinery. It applies for brakes as well. Since that part is rotating.
@@marsmellow1589 It's a disc, part of a disc brake system, not a rotor brake system, at least it was in the many years I've been mucking around with vehicles.
RIP Mark Purslow.
