A Dislocated Arm & Sheep On The Road at 170mph! | TT Motorcycle Madness With Dan Cooper!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 4 ก.พ. 2025
- This week I've been joined by my good mate and Isle Of Man TT legend, Dan Cooper, or "Coops" as he's better known. This boy can properly ride a motorcycle and has some incredible stories about his days competing in the world's scariest road race. From dodging errant sheep at 170mph, to riding with a dislocated arm - it's proper hair-raising stuff!
We also catch up with the preparation of our Yamaha R6 race bikes, before we head to Spain, and show you some of the differences between them.
It's a long video, but well worth a watch to get an insight into just how scary it can be to compete at the TT, the ultimate test of man and machine.

As a TT and Manx GP anorak I loved this episode. Thanks to you Rik for giving up the time to make all these videos. Hope it continues for a long time
Ricky’s passion for bikes is clear to see and I think he loves them more than cars. Great video lads and more like this please.
Loved this, first time on the channel, TT born and bred, we live for those two weeks of the year….definitely coming back to have a look at the content….don’t forget, MD chucking a leg over a TT marshals bike at the MGP, and doing a 129 …. lap, on a stock Honda 1000 , road tyres , standard fairing, mirrors and all….cheers…👍👌🇮🇲
Dan Cooper - what a legend and such a top lad! Mega Vid that Ricky!! Cheers 🙌
That conversation with Cooper was great. Says it all about what the TT means.
Possibly the best content I've ever seen in any TH-cam video. Dan and every other rider that takes part at the Isle of Man, absolute heroes, every single one of them 😍
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you
Dan i could listen to him all day. well done guys
Great episode, I enjoy both 4 and 2 wheel content. I live in Canada and only able to enjoy the TT via the TH-cam coverage.
I fuckin loved that episode ❤like for real i sat back grabbed some Doritos and watched it like i was studying for uni. Love the TT content also as an R6 owner i love everything around that bike. Please follow TT or bike builds for the roads!!
Cheers from Greece ❤
The TT and race talk was excellent, a great insight into racing mentality. The TT is bonkers but gob smackingly brilliant !
I can’t wait for the TT this year, that is some amount of money for a race bike. Totally understandable why it costs so much , it’s eye watering though.
Great watch, those R6's are miles different to the 2007 ex Virgin cup bike I raced in 2011. Loving the TT stories, my hat goes off to anyone that rides there. 👍🏻
Huge respect to Dan Cooper and his mahoosive balls😀 cant wait for north west and TT this year, absolutely love it👍
Brilliant video loved the TT chat, another string to your bow. 👏🏻
Enjoyed that video and conversation! I race an R6 and R1 so appreciate the bike breakdown.
Damn, its so good to hear you pronounce Akrapovic correctly.
Brilliant video as always guys, esp as I'm a Biker, Manx Mechanic and NL instructor.
One of my favourite episodes this is. Going through the TT and experiences 👏
Really enjoyed that episode. Even including Guy Martin, the humbleness of the TT riders is something astonishing - and something I have nothing but admiration for... More tea needed though...
Absolutely love the bike content mate, can see its your true passion and love the cars earn you a living, Dan's cool as penguins piss too 👍🏼
Fasinating, and i'm not a bike person!!
What a top bloke coops is 🎉😊
Great upload,I've been to a few TT's & go to the Classic TT every year.When I first went it surpried me where some spectators stood,I don't think they're aware that if things go wrong there's going to be pieces of motorcycle flying toward them at high speed 😵.
😊Great episode, loved that. If they stopped the TT the basic economy of the Isle of Man would probably collapse !!
Best video yet! I absolutely loved the TT stuff!
Absolutely loved this boys, so cool as a punter to have a bit of an insight into how you'd approach TT! Cheers RE DC
TT has changed lots .. Used to go and watch Joey D .in the rain over the mountain in the fog...lol ..Best was Foggy on the yam against Hissy Norton...Foggy bike was scrap at the end ...Miss it but the cost ov going is killing it...Good luck and keep it pinned..
This is more like a podcast maybe you need to do more of them with racers 👍
Loved this video 😊
That was a great listen 👍🏼
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks
Love the content. These bikes are so trick! Here I am on a 20 year old cbr600rr. But atleast if I cartwheel it I can afford the repair bill 😅
Ricky, you said previously that 'bike' vids tank, personally, I LOVE 'EM !!!
Fascinating on all topics, thanks guys, and Kate 🙏👍🏁
Our pleasure! Thanks for watching.
Again, super content. Sone good to hear two good riders having a talk about the perils and joys. Keep it coming!
Wow love this video a great insight into the racing 👍
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching
Love these videos. Nursing a semi for the first half and had the hairs on my neck stand up for the TT..
Will you be getting the FBS hoodies back in stock on the website?
Bloody brilliant on that one Rick But the price of the pieces on them R6’s Let alone the big bikes just like telephone numbers, makes my prod days of LC racing look like peanuts, compared to today’s prices enjoy your time in Spain and have fun
Keep up the great work, really enjoy the bike talk and hope testing goes well
Well done, the 54:33 best one is yet on bikes 🏍 👏
Thoroughly enjoyed that rick 👍
Best video you have done to date live the bike stuff.
Absolutely amazing insight into the sport. Where else can you get such content.
Love it , more bikes please
Great video love the bike stuff
Awesome chat!!!
Thanks!!
Brilliant video Rick
Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it
Great video. Thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Bike stuff.....ace!
Great tech talk 👍🏻
Nice one tt is special enjoy spain
Thank you.
love the bike chat… have you every tried carbon loranne break pads? i am by no means the quickest on a bike, but i have never had a single complaint about feel or sopping power.
Considering how quick the Stockers are, is there still a place for Superbikes at the TT?
Full respect wish Malachi had got to do the TT
respect!!!
👍🏼
Does the Thru rod Ohlins cause less cavitation compaired with the TTX and whats the difference in service intervals, if any?
Do you ride with standard thickness or Fat grips on the Bars.
@56.26 is my biggest fear,.and st ninians is a prime spot imo,.
Class❤
Bike content is best content
Hopefully bringing some car guys some insight into why bikes are better lol 😄😄😄😄
Always wanted to know what the red pickup is always under the cover?
Legendary viewing ..
No bull shit 👌
Ricky would you ever consider the TT?
The thing that pisses me off about people wanting to stop the TT is that everyone that races is an adult , not kids and they know the dangers and the organizer's don't let anyone ride , so people trying to ban it just f..koff!
Is this the fella who is an Audi R8 specialist, too?
I'm one of the guys at the back of a club race pretending i won a world championship.
👌🏼
Try as ye may .mickey d and Mike brown will do the business
Me and my dad say it every year can’t believe the snowflakes haven’t stoped the tt yet .your probally right if a big crash and many people die riders and crowd then that will be hard to carry it on
£3k for a radiator?? Why ? That’s mental
I know what's wrong with it dont got no gas init
What a load of bollocks
Can you get rid of the shopping cars from the videos
Who buys used MotoGP bikes? Serious question.
Best video ever!!! Thank you so much for making this for us. I will try and build my r6 similar to yours but wont be as good
