For 6 Years, I've returned to this video once a year when I'm feeling helpless and lost. Hearing Peter control this beast brings peace to my chaotic mind. See you next year.
You'll never see a better video of a TT lap. Hicky is brilliant. The bike is incredible. The weather is fantastic. It's not just about a great lap - the video is perfectly done. The editing between cameras is brilliant. The markers in the corner of the screen was a great touch. No music!! Hicky was brilliant.
@@wills.junks7 While it's absolutely correct that a motorbike is ridden, and I would only ever say ridden, "drove" does actually make sense. Drove is past tense of drive, and drive (v) means to "operate and control the direction and speed of a motor vehicle", with mention of controls. I've heard "pilot" being used on many occasions to describe a motorcyclist, when a motorbike is neither an aircraft nor a ship, so while drive/drove is an odd way to phrase things, it is acceptable. Also, I've heard plenty of international riders refer to it as "drive".
I still struggle to believe that getting that animal of a bike around that track at such speeds and finishing alive is anything but pure luck. These men are not normal. Wow, what a lap.
I've seen a lot of on board footage from the Isle of Man, and this stomps them all. In terms of camera angles, sense of speed, and the panoramic view (the camera above the dash readout gives a sense of the crazy speed being achieved here) this is just bat-shit crazy. Go BMW. What a bike; what a video.
Indeed. Taking the Creg in first gear and only putting the front wheel down at the 35th milestone is pretty special. Must have been a real blast for him with no pressure on him.
I showed this video to a friend of mine who loves bikes as much as me. And his jaw fell to the floor all the video. +190 MPH in flat 6th gear, bouncing the hell out of the rev limiter. The speed is absolutely FRIGHTENING. No time for caution, and no space for errors. And the skills of this pilot driving at that speed, running at full throttle, and pushing the limits of his machine... This video is beyond insane.
They are not borderline suicidal but just extreme thrill seekers and adrenaline junkies. They love life just like anyone else. They go close to the edge to enhance their life experience. It's only for a select few who have the skills to walk the tight rope. Risk takers are not automatically suicidal, borderline or otherwise. Watching plenty of interviews of Isle of Man riders and a few documentaries may clarify what I mean.
The whole ride makes me goosebumps as hell. the bike was unbelievable, Hicky was on another level to take perfectly control. and his eye got me. I can feel that pure Adrenaline. this work is untouchable. much reverence🙏
@@Birb_of_Judge motogp uses carbon brakes, i guess they are not useing them (since insanely expensive like 60-100k a set) and cause the operating temperature. "standard" steel brakes are good but carbon outperform them by a lot when they get in the sweet spot
I’ve ridden for 40 years now, raced, wrecked, won, survived so many close calls and the TT stands out as a race where every corner is a win, every lap a survival, every winner a true legend for the sport. Turning a bike in a corner with the wheel off the ground at over 100mph is no easy feat.....let alone doing it half the race. I say “Well done sir!”
Not instant. Suprisingly with modern protective gear some crashes are survivable even at 150mph. Although because of all the curbs and walls etc this is a more deadly place to crash. Alot of moto gp riders get up and walk off after a 100 mph slideout.
@@motormans2 You should check out Keith Amor's Supersport crash (around 2012 I think) - manages to slide a long way without hitting a thing. You're correct of course - Amor's crash is memorable because he DIDN'T hit anything.
@@pauld.b7129 Of course GP riders typically get up and walk away. They have plenty of run-off.. . and the tarmac they ride on is very smooth, they have no undulations to speak of. Comparison is way off vs this.
That sound is a real recital. It's like the best melody in the world. It takes people to other places. Just like the wind that hits your face while riding a motorcycle takes you to other places...
the ultimate test for man and machine. this isn't formula one with your run off areas, halo devices and DRS zones. this is the purest form of racing left on public roads. look how the rider is struggling to just hold on but is committed to every corner. you get no second chances. this is why only the very best win the TT
Interesting fact…this specific model BMW has a modified gas tank for those Large Jewel’s he has to carry around. By far (in my opinion) the most exhilarating track. Even to watch practice laps. These TT riders are a a different breed. Laying it all on the line….it never gets old.
@@Chillidog650 This is the best VIDEO I've ever seen around here. All of the greats have incredible laps, but nothing comes close in production values......and Hicky is the top man going into 2019.

This is the best onboard motorcycle video in the world. Seriously. I really want to know what they used to film this. 300 kph and virtually no vibrations, and I count at least seven different camera angles. That is impressive.
Wow, one of the best TT videos I've seen, thanks for not overlaying music. That wheelie at 17:15 is insane, 1st through 5th with the front end floating, WOW!!!!!!
The ZX-10 is a very nice bike but for the road, I don't think there's anything better than the S1000RR. It's as fast as anything out there and for a supersports bike, it's really comfortable and easy to ride. So comfortable, you can tour on it. How much do I like the S1000RR? I like it enough to own a 2016 S1000RR Premium model.
What's scary to me is how blinded they are by the sun+curves sometimes. They literally go balls to the wall without being able to see anything sometimes.

John Kattenhorn this bike hp4 race not s1000rr
+tiger trees he wasn't saying that the bike was a s1000rr in the video. He meant he sees the good things about BMW's bikes
The ZX-10 is a very nice bike but for the road, I don't think there's anything better than the S1000RR. It's as fast as anything out there and for a supersports bike, it's really comfortable and easy to ride. So comfortable, you can tour on it. How much do I like the S1000RR? I like it enough to own a 2016 S1000RR Premium model.
The S1000RR is nicer... when it's working, that is.
Arguably the best way to feel alive!

If it's a 2 stroke, then they ain't far off...
What's scary to me is how blinded they are by the sun+curves sometimes. They literally go balls to the wall without being able to see anything sometimes.

Ryu Vincent only problem is Clarkson doesn’t like bikes, Hammond and May are the ones to keep away from this beast.
Red line....!!!!
