My 2 passions together

Ok apologies for the picture heavy post but this is something I've been wanting to do for a long time but never quite had the chance due to differing reasons.
But before the start of my race season this year and whilst the bike is looking pretty before I inevitably throw it into the gravel I decided to take it down to the city ground and take some photos of 2 of my passions together (albeit one is testing my patience and its not the bike for once) hopefully the city ground brings me some luck for my 2024 race season kick off next weekend at Snetterton
Thanks for looking

I’ll ask the daft question not being a bike person - how quick does it go?

It depends on the gearing mate to be fair it makes 194bhp so should in theory do around 185mph possibly 190mph with a long enough straight its currently geared to hit the limier in 6th at around 170mph because Snetterton had a decent length straight so is circuit dependent really the aim is to only have what you will need then it will get to that quicker

So many bikers where I'm originally from, North Antrim, including the legend that is Joey Dunlop. Not sure how well he's really known outside the motorbiking scene / Northern Ireland. Possibly the most unassuming world class sportsman ever.

The numbers at his funeral show how much of a legend he and his whole family are the film road still chokes me to watch tragic story but Michael winning the North West 200 the day after he saw his dad die in front of him is unbelievable
