  1. Riders dangle their leg when heavy braking for the same reason that tight rope walkers carry a balance pole. We're talking about the use of leg weight inertia to counter the tendency of the front wheel contact patch to swing the rear away from an orthogonal (perpendicular) orientation, which keeps the bike's long axis aligned with the direction of travel.. It dampens the tendency of the unweighted rear wheel to free the mass of the bike to pivot around the fork bearing axis. Just as a stoppie pivots the bike vertically around the wheel axle, that 2nd pivo point at the steering head could allow an unweighted rear wheel to swing horizontally.. I'm kinda confused as to why this leg dangle technique is generally perceived as a mystery.

  2. Poor old Dean Harrison, if it was another era he'd be a multiple Champion around the island but he's racing the Best of the best Dunlop & Hickman. Still he can say he's fighting with the big Dowgs.

  3. The leg coming off is hardly for center of gravity. It has an effect, but there's some corners that bring it out in any rider. It's comfort. It feel. It's necessary when you're running 110% to do simple things to make you feel better about what you do.

  4. With a race that is obsessed with the average lap speed, how is it this highlight never even mentions it…not even at the end…Didn't Hickman do a record setting 137+mph circuit? ah…………………..wtf?

  5. Gotta say this TT came and went without me noticing for the first time I’m a long time. I was just given notification of one of the races yesterday then rushed to the calendar to realize it slipped by me. Oh well maybe they purposely blocked it to get their in person numbers up after giving in to the Covid mass hysteria experiment a few years back.

  6. I fell off my bicycle today and hurt my elbow pretty badly with road rash and yet these men are inches from death respect

  7. Когда нибудь я буду на этих гонках…хочется в реальной жизни увидеть это событие….Россия,Башкирия…✋✋✋💥💥

  8. って事で、マン島レースでブイブイやってるのの大部分が日本車で後はドイツ、イタリヤ、スペインあたりだな。本気に300キロで走れるバイク作るのって尊敬するわ。

  9. This years event for the two weeks was totally unbelievable,All riders rode lap times for personal bests ,they had the best time ever , totally focused. The crowd was in for a brilliant treat, Thankyou to all teams and riders for making it a unforgettable holiday 🦂

  10. I challenge myself in the 2023 TT 'game' and I can tell ya that's enough adrenaline to almost put me off my coffee and that's saying something! 😂
