After being introduced to motorcycling via a school visit by the immortal John Cooper in the 60s and being a keen follower of racing over the years I've found my interest rekindled watching your and the talented Franco's stories over the last year or two. No lack of competition but so different from the Premier Class with Marques trying to kill himself and anyone else in the way...
Great video Dave, absolutely love these BSB weekend vlogs. 👍 Playing a blinder in your Roving Mechanic/Data Tech/Rider coach/reporter role! I think it just shows how important knowing the rider is because the Marvel debrief clearly made a difference to Sunday's race.
These are awesome. You just feel the excitement of it all and learn a huge amount through the snippets and comments. Rapid do properly useful training for mortals too. Thanks!
Loving these behind the scenes vlogs and the reaction of Mr Burrell after his race was so special that's what it's all about no prima donnas just lovin the racing 😊 oh I see Tito is terrorising WSB this weekend 😂
What a great vlog of behind the scenes at a british superbike meeing. Super interesting, great footage and lots of laughter. Great content. Keep it rolling......
As usual Dave loved it. Something tv does not show often, the fighting going on further down the grid. Never the less exiting to see these young riders progress as they push hard. I’ve raced and know how hard it is to get anywhere near the front, let alone a win. You showed it as it is. These young guys inc Franco will be the stars of the future.
What a superb video Dave you're a man of many talents, not only a great bike engineer and racer but you consistently put out great vlogs which are essential viewing..please keep them coming 👍
Thank you for posting this. Greatly appreciate all the work that you must have to put in to produce these videos. May have to buy some merch if you keep this up! Excellent to see a broad spread of the goings on in pitlane at BSB. And I was worried I wouldn't be able to follow Franco's progress now.
Great video Dave, I was at Brands Friday Saturday and Sunday. Saturdays weather was awful. Good to see Franco making good progress hopefully some points next time out.
Really enjoying the behind the scenes and paddock banter. Boy those 4 stroke really get expansive when they crash, my RS250 Honda usually was only a foot peg / handle bar and maybe an exhaust (we never counted bodywork) . You must be exhausted helping all those riders over the weekend but I guess it helps keep your thin so you can have as much cake as you want. Great job by Franco (don't tell him) and I hope he get past Tito next race ;-)
Evening Dave 😊 absolutely loving these vids, the insight is awesome, the technical stuff is riveting. Sensational work thank you for showing what actually goes on behind the curtain 👍👍👍 A group of teens on 600 sports? Bloody hooligans!! In the best possible way naturally 😂
Another great video Dave, really interesting stuff. What happens with regard to Honda 'stealing' Franco. Does the team get any sort of compensation, as he's not riding your bike, and sponsor's have to be kept happy.
He went with our blessings. It's all a little in limbo with sponsors at the moment, but that's really matt's problem as he's the money man. Luckily I think everyone shares our views that it's more for franco's progress and only a little for the exposure
@obsession_engineering Even missing these rounds, I think Franco will still finish high up in the standings, and a lot of it will be down to the teams hard work and guidance. I came across your site via your videos on the gen 2 Tuono, and have watched every one since. I'm looking forward to future vlogs, especially regarding the team and Franco, and the fountain of knowledge, Pete Boast. You have a star in Franco, and he can only get better with people that are in the team nurturing him and guiding him to what will hopefully be a brilliant future. All the very best to all the team Dave.
Great racin, thanks for the vid, and one question, what effect is it on the tires with the heat cycle , you have all those tires ready and then not use them , they go cold till the next race. cold ,hot . how does that mess with the tire? Cheers
I'm told they only hear cycle above 70 degrees, so they are kept just below and boosted up a little before they're needed. And some are just hanging around in there!
thank you , i prefer more and more usernamekate if it come to explain datatool 🙄 ...you at a motorbike reportage is not bad but we deserve something better , what's about "endurance races" at 6h/12h maybe 24hours true-hot...engines of course (i will dance like a monkey if i can drive so good like we see here !!! ) -good luck 🍀

What a cracking 47 minutes, superb in depth look at life in the pit lane. Looking forward to the next one from Thruxton..
The collective noun is most definately a 'RIOT' of 600's... Excellent content Dave as usual.

Wow - you were busier than ever! Loving Franco`s progress, and his sense of humour. Thanks for your pro production skills.
I wish I had you back in 2000 to help me. You are mint Dave . love your channel .Franco still needs you and the team to go forward brilliant work 👍

I've just spent ages trying to work out where I knew Mike Silvester from. Then I realized - 25 years ago he was my Bank Manager! Small world.🤑🤣

R6 looks sweet, always felt my R1 had been trying to kill me
Group of teens on 600s got to be gasbo’s ie a group of asbo’s. Keep up the good work !
Hi the collective noun for a group of racing 600 cc bikes is commonly known as a wailing fleet.oxford
oxford language meanning crying with pain grief or anger.
Was that J.whitams old bike.?
Quite possibly! Although maybe not enough crash damage for a whit bike
