TT 2004 review
Anyone see it on Eurosport a day or two ago?

The bikes never seem settled, always shaking their heads, at least on the on bike stuff in the review.

It looks like the nearest thing to gladiatorial combat you can get to on a bike. If yer competitors don't beat you then either the bike or the circuit could kill you!!

As usual no Ducatis doing any good though?

Some say that riding flat out on the TT circuit is not a good idea but from what I saw the top riders weren't out to enjoy the scenery!

Ray.

Bit hard to find a perfect setup for the TT, the suspension has to cope with Hump back bridges, very rippley surfaces, very high speeds. A good quality steering damper is a must as is properly set up suspension. Could be why Adrian was having fun passing GSXR1000s in practice on my 400.
