would love to go to the manx,i always wanted to go to the TT but its lost some of its appeal to me now they have dropped the 125 and 250 classes,although i can imagine its still a great event,just a shame you cant tell one bike from the next (no soul
).
the manx though.....that looks like my cup of tea
I initially thought that last bike was the V4 250 yamaha,then noticed the carbs are between the barrels (i think?) and its actually a stepped square 4.
could it be the early suzuki GP 250 engine,nicknamed "the whispering death" for its seizure capability's.
Another plus for me with the manx is that it isnt full of idiots trying to do a fast lap while others are just enjoying riding the island.
Good to see an F reg Kr1 still going strong,and the tZR

No, my mate decided not to race it this year so I cancelled my plans to go over. I'm also rather busy at the moment, so will probably go next year
