He set a world record in 2015 for this hot lap for top speed. Not sure if it still stands. I read his avg lap speed was 104. Well below the 136s today. Even the 1000cc bikes aren't being run full throttle all the time. Point being IoM places more value on skill in the 200+ turns and course knowledge than outright power. If the track had more straights and the H2R could pass the homologation rules, she'd probably be crushing the field.
As a motorcyclist and one who loves it totally I am in utter incredulation at the skill and speeds these guys perform at. How do you garner this skill level? How do you have the sheer courage to go at these speeds around what is effectively a death trap? I will be forever in utter awe at all of them who take on this circuit and wish them gods speed in safety no matter their individual level.
James is great such a talented rider and modest gentleman but like a comedian:”and at this point, you can rest a bit. (The bike is doing 200 miles an hour) “in up through the mountain. It’s a bit more relaxing”you can see your picture of the handlebars Rocking and shaking over the bumps as the bike is trying to kick him off every moment.😂
Nice to James doing his Kawasaki PR obligation. This is first and last comment to stop everyone saying"run it at the TT" - no dont. Would be a hot mess and need more taking off it to even get round. Too heavy not nimble enough. Great in a straight line and for top trumps. End. :)
I owned Z1000 back in the day, absolutely loved it a bit hairy going into corners. But in my opinion, Z9 and Z1000 what are the best looking bikes ever! I don’t own it anymore, but ever since they brought this out, I keep looking at it I’m thinking should I. They did try with a zephyr years ago but this is the dogs.
