I don’t know about any other places apart from in The mountains on IOM and on Germany’s autobahn it is perfectly legal to pass the police at whatever speed you like that beautiful crossPlane crank never gets old
20 years ago, my pal and I were travelling from Friedrichshafen towards Stuttgart on the autobahn. I was on my Blackbird and Mark was on his ZX9R. We got into a cruise at 150 mph on our speedos and it was surreal. After a about 10 miles or so it just all seemed perfectly normal and we actually passed a Porsche 911 Police car in full livery and we just continued. We went for about 50 miles or about 20 minutes like this until fuel lights came on. Wonderful experience and both bikes did it with ease.
Someone will correct me but I think 1 way traffic during TT fortnight is relatively recent (maybe 25 years?). I believe even Mad Sunday was 2 way in the past, which caused problems. 🙀
Fantastic run lads. Absolutely flying. Your mate round mountain box looked superb. Well done.
Lovely and smooth on the verandah. Not often you get to sweep round there as 1 big curve. Excellent

2:55 it happens
Nice smooth ride boys. I wish I was with you.
2:13 could be me on the left 😂
If only I could ride like that.😀
That R1 sounds mint
CP4 engines are wonderful.
Is that the best sound of a modern bike engine? I'm a little biased because I have an MT10 which also makes a glorious sound. Thank you Yamaha.
richard hillier never had that in the way ! flawless riding;
Are there just certain days/times when you can do this? Is it just part of the course? Thanks 🙏
2 weeks every year 😊
The Mountain is always unrestricted for speed, but outside of TT fortnight it’s 2-way traffic.
Fab stuff lads
Is the road one way traffic only?
Yep while the tt is on.

@@Pikestnt It was one way when I used to go. Last time 1981.
Superb riding!!
@@chipesh You're misremembering. It wasn't one-way when my family moved here, the practice started in 2007.
Amazing 🙏👌

Nothing in this world beats it for me :-)
