      Danny is only 29. The closest comparison I can think of for skill, courage, speed, noise,age and almost inhuman concentration is a battle of Britain Spitfire pilot.

      Having been a national 600 racer, so many people don't study the lap times... then you realise that a pro rider on a smaller capacity machine would be in the top 50% of the next class...
      250 vs 600 vs 750 vs 1000...
      Lap times put everything into context... very often the media for the TV coverage intentionally leave the full grid lap times out, so you cannot see that the top 600 riders are faster than the back of the superbike grid😮.

      @@redchemicalsltd2324 Yup Corner speed and commitment. A smaller lighter bike accelerates faster, and less HP equals less tire spin and heat, which equals more grip. It's about putting the power down and being able to use it. Plus 250 two strokes at the peak of development were making serious useable power @ over 100hp in a 200lb bike.

My brother had a CBR1000cc and could not believe it following me, so we swapped bikes at Ramsey and I could not stay anywhere it up to 'The Bungalow' where we swapped again, and the tyres on the CBR were shredded like bacon rind. - The RG is an awesome beast indeed and a real delight to ride. Only modification I added was a steering damper.

    A good raw ride there Danny. 12000 R.P.M.+ is more than I dared do on mine, & that was with the double power band, the early road going versions came with. You had a bit of competition in that race, I was starting to think it was mad Sunday!

    Remember when Rossi attended the TT a few years back as a spectator. His face said it all: 'Jesus.There's no way I'd do that!' The fact he's a multi millionaire when most of these guys earn peanuts relatively, if anything, is a crime.

    I had one of these back in the day. Mine had come straight from the track. Crazy thing about this animal was that you only needed to use the clutch to start after that you just kicked her in and out of gears. Never had an issue once. If you gunned it the first time the front end touched the ground was 180km.
    Danny that was an amazing ride.

    What are these two doing vmax there?
    And is it much harder to drive like that for the way less engine-brake effect compared to 4 stroke?
    And I think it's gread how damn well the engine oil is cooled (and how cool it actually is, looking at my ol' KTM LC4), compare pre-start to end of turn. Amazing!

    Best ride of my life was on one of these to the 94 GP at Donnington, Schwantz inspired ride home one of many reasons I should not have survived my 20’s. I always preferred the look of the mk3 250 but the 500 was a far better ride, just needed more tyre even in standard form. Would love to know if E767 GTW is still out there and if so is it still running the Stan Stephens tune, all the barrels were vibro etched with details.
