#BAREBONESMC
#RIDEFREE This video tells a story of passion and pain. The story of how the Isle of Man took on the FIM, and with the help of the riders who had dedicated their lives to road racing, turned a potentially disastrous situation that could have finished the TT forever, into a springboard to ensure the future success of the event.
It also looks at the early racing life of 2 brothers. 2 characters who changed the world of racing forever, but in very different ways.
They left a lasting legacy that will I think, live on forever.
Never did a family love racing like the Dunlop's, and never was there a more challenging race than the Isle Of Man TT.

I have no Racing background in cars or bikes but if there was 1 bad arse'd Bike Race this one would be the one I mention only for the limited video I have seen. In it's own ways, stuff like the Baja Races I might also mention but they are there own type. I think you said something about Dakar Race & I'm only guessing that's like the Baja race, being in Desert or hot/dry terrain. But for bad arse'd street type race..... Isle of Mann is the one that stands out over/beyond anything but I know very little except these MEN put it all on the line, everything as in, "Life -n- Death". This is the longest video and most minutes I've ever watched any motorcycle event. Looks to be a made for tv type broadcast. Possibly someone videoed it off the cable network & had it all these years? Whoever allowed you to show this, thank them from a guy who didn't know anything about it. peace & take care

Yeah BBBu , from the start I discerned something within you I liked & that wouldn't change even if I never bought a bike. I came from a place -n- time where words had meaning & people shared something deeper than they're able to do today? Don't ask me to explain any of it but you have an honest sincere demeanor about you & I really don't mind telling people when I sense it. And I will go over & thank the man even though I know nothing about it except the stuff I already mentioned. We all have people who don't like us out in this world so be blessed when someone steps up on the good side of things. I may be late to look at your stuff but I will be coming. Chat soon, peace

Great video which brought back so many memories. What a sad year that was. I was there that year , not for the first time, and for many more after. I stopped going after the tragic passing of Joey but have been back a few times in recent years for the classic bikes at the Manx GP. 45 years after my first TT and I'm still addicted to it. Long may it continue. Thanks for the memories

I'm a little confused. I'm certain some of the video showed Joey Dunlop on what appears to be a Honda VFR 750 R RC 30 however these were not raced at the TT until 1988. I saw a couple of short clips of the much modified 6 X competition version of the VFR 750 F which was raced in 1986.

@BareBonesBackUp Месяц назад

the clips at the beginning i wide format were from Dundrod and may have been later, as to the rest, this was how it was released, i did no video editing at all, i just added the intro, so if that is where the RC30 you saw was that explains it

@jeffrobinson8430 27 дней назад

The RC 30 followed on after what Honda learned from Joey's works F1 bikes , that's why they look similar.

@johnnyrvf 27 дней назад

@@jeffrobinson8430 Thanks for the clarification. I read that the RC30 was an improved machine based on the factory RVF endurance racers. I have a personal interest because I own a RC30.
