Just seen this linked on my faceache page. The speed of the 250’s is impressive but this video nails the sheer violence of riding a bike round the NW200. Throttle nailed to the stop and slipstreaming. Brilliant.
My housemate is in the 250 class . He came third overall last season . . Not bad for his first attempt . Had his bike out on the road a couple of times for a daylight MOT . . . Difficult to ride but unbelievable fast for a 250 . . He will have 80 hp on tap this next season .
