I just rode SLOWLY a souped up Modenas 115 4 stroke with very high foot pegs set up yesterday. Even had to bump start the damm thing.....where? at the kart track of course as they one or two for paddock bikes and yes, it was wet. Anyway, back to IOM - I have a book also showing most of the features of the track and how to ride it...... On type of bikes, OSF - no kapchais but the Senior class gets the trick Superbikes. Yes, I think some did try with the GP500 2 stroke bikes..... I also recall IOM was at one stage part of the World GP racing calendar...until the riders boycotted it just like another track in Europe called Imatra. ( not Karma Sutra okie...) Why? Many fatalities lar.... IOM was where Honda-san 1st sapu the podium with their 6 cylinders 250cc ( I think ).....miniature japan watches! It was the place where many other Jap bike makers came over to race their machines and springboard into the lucrative Motorcyle market ( then ). OSF - one day, we watch my IOM CD together but then do a Utube search, I am sure u get a onboard footage.....my palms are sweating now oredi!</blockquote>
