Вставка
- Опубліковано 24 чер 2012
- As the fastest ever man around the Isle of Man TT, 19-times winner and Honda TT Legends rider John McGuinness is what you might call an expert on the 37.739-mile mountain course. Here, he talks through the Isle of Man TT lap, giving a unique account of his techniques and feelings on some of the most famous sections - from Bray Hill to Rhencullen, Kirk Michael and the Sulby Straight, to the Mountain, the Verandah, Creg-ny-baa and the start/finish on Glenclutchery Road. A legendary lap by a legendary rider.

My Brain cannot Register the SHEER SKILL required to just Complete a Lap , let alone RACE IT..... OMG

Anybody who can fly between walls and buildings at 195 mph while the bike is wobbling all over the place and take the time to notice people at the pub having a pint is truly a racer. :)
thirsty racer
Class, style, funny & humble... a true legend!! I'm so grateful too view such great legend in this sport. May your angels forever keep you safe. MUCH Love John!!
I'll second that. What a man.
+Charlie Brown Ill 3rd that boys.. >;-) be so cool to hang out with him for a day
TrickTroy McGuinness 🤣🤣
I just love this man... so special on the bike and a real gent... drove for three hours for his autograph in Cork and photographed with him, then turned around and went home. The wife still looking at me...
haha love it, id do the same ;-)
It’s a woman it will never understand!
McGuinness has proven he is the most versatile rider in the world, yet he remains grounded and humble. He is definitely a class act.
every TT racer is a hero
I absolutely agree!
ayWusgod Period.
Yes you right
One of the TT's greatest riders of all time and an all round nice guy JM :)
John McGuiness simply brilliant.. Like any great sportsman or artist in anything, 'A master of concentration.'
This man is one of a kind.A real legend.Balls of steel.Respect!!!!
What an amazing man. Legend. Every time he speaks, I learn.
Love the way those close shots on his hands give a possible insight into how his brain gets him round the circuit. Legend.
It's amazing how he explains how it feels to him to defy something that seems impossible to the average joe. Those speeds dont translate the same to us as to him his senses are extreme to adapt to that environment so keen that he even has the time to contemplate eating a burger that he smells cooking on someones grill just blows my mind lol.
+dakota38rip+ ya that's cool...he is cool...I like to find out what groups and songs he listens to
I would love to buy him a pint, seems like such a down to earth guy, and what talent! Amazing stuff right there.....
So quiet an unassuming, and yet he is without a doubt the best man on that course. Ultimate respect. How to process that much information so fast without crashing and still smell a burger cooking. Walking down the shops must be like slow motion for him...
I cant imagine any man in the world watching that and not being impressed!
+3Vimages you get your sport bike haters...they would never get it..
kevin johnson True ... I am not exactly a follower but can easily see the skill and bravery.
C So true ... kids of today are mostly precious little snowflakes. They would rather be accused of being a paedophile than being a racist!
+3Vimages gimme racist all day
Insane show my friend # 1
May every rider make it to the finish and get home to their families safe and sound
The Zee Group tense whisky
"Smell the burgers at 160mp/h" - legend
Just mind boggling the skill, speed, sheer bottle and the fact he can make all the observations as well. Plus he is a nice down to earth bloke. Cant wait to see how Guy Martin fares in the same team.
"I'd love to be sat in that field havin a burger..." He's thinking about after smelling the BBQ fumes @ 190 odd mph. What a legend.
What a fantastic bloke. and a true star . Met him at aberdare road races . And he gave his time to everyone . Thank you for a fantastic day. And the autographs . All the best molesport rallying
Thank you John for making these videos! It is like we are sitting having a pint and your explaining the course...Fantastic.
All the best!
Absolute legend. Balls made of titanium.
Great down to earth guy is John 👍
Met John many times and he is a genuinely nice guy and in my opinion the best around the tt
Great guy, ,Mr. McGuiness. I've watched him for years. One of the very best!
These racers who race at the Isle and Northern Ireland are extraordinary with super talent and courage! Love it!
Biggest balls on the planet. As a motorcycle rider and someone who does the occasional track-day, I can't even imagine flying over Bray Hill at 180 mph+ with houses, curbs, bushes and light-poles just meters away. Much respect Mr. McGuinness!
Thanks kindly mate cheers greetings from Ireland 🇮🇪
Probably the least acclaimed rider in history the man is clinical a true legend , if he was better looking and more of a barry sheen or foggy or joey we all would be raving about him like we do about guy martin even though hes never won the tt , respect to guy and all these riders but give mcguinness his dues hes already a legend
This guy is awesome,how many champions could you meet that are as down to earth approachable and easy to talk to.That's really commendable.
At 5:10 it's just captivating! The quickest doubt in his mind could end him in an instant.
Greatest human being you'll ever see, quote from the man himself. "I'm just a brickie who can ride a bike fast!"...What a guy!!
Isn't it striking that two of the biggest heroes of our time in the TT have the names of brands of Beer and Rubber?
:D :D :D
Thanks for watching and ur kind words. MY BEST
@@JMAC-rs6ey If you'd spelled the name right I'd have believed you hahaha
love that map on the table - Got it on my 2016 T shirt Thanks from Denmark
What a humble individual. He could certainly act out like some some dis-functional american actress if he wanted. What a human!
You are definitely ignorant and a part of the problem. So far to go for you, please do not have children or marry until you grow up.
All the best JMG for this year...keep on going your old but gold...
The word legend is probably used a bit to often.
But this man is truly a legend.
Simple amazing what he can do.
‘Legend’ doesn’t even begin to describe this rider.
Learning from a living Legend,but we will never be so fast 🤔😜🤘F...ing awesome the Guy 👌
A true hero. And a true gentleman. John mcGuinness ,Walter rohl, juha kankenan. Best of the best.
How humble and down to earth. Humanity can learn something from this man.
John McGuinness - Bloody Awesome!!
Brilliant stuff !
super beautifull video!!! thank you
I had the pleasure to meet John at a race meet two weeks ago. What a humble man,funny lad too. He was struggling with a Broken wrist at the time but hopefully this won't affect his season too much.
just professional... best of the best! good luck, John!!!!!
What a great humble down to earth fella jm is. A credit to the sport , himself and his family. I hope the crash this week at the the nw doesn't make him want to retire . Get well soon .
Love this dude, so level headed!
THE MAN...
John is such a big hero of mine he is faster than ever now can't wait for tt win 24
Awesome Mac
typical mcpint the only fella who can sniff a burger out at 190...incredible
These guys live and ride in another dimension
Indeed John and his riders are
A LIVING LEGEND. KEEP it that way John
Not only a teammate but a sincere friend of mine. My best
I'd been riding a few years when this video was new and I still feel like a hero just doing a power wheelie in second. 😂
the power of honda and the ability of him was creepy amazing
Ive been riding a little over a year and ive hit 180 on the track but not over 150 on the street. I watch the TT so i can live the experiance......if i tried to ride it....i would die from it. This race is for only the best.
Odwaga i szacun dla tego pana 💪
A TRUE GENT all ways got time for people
Great John!
John, we love you.
DJ, the King.
real hero.
my idol john!!!!u have the balls!!!!
Respect!!
AWESOME !
John is the Man on MAN!!
Just watching this gets my blood pressure up. I'm sitting on my ass in front of my computer but I actually get scared watching this. About a year ago I crashed on a Ducati 1098 going 107 mph (per the police report) and I thought that was bad. When I got out of the hospital I discovered the TT. Every guy that does this race has more nerve than 99.99% of the general public. Even 99% of the riders that have the skill to do it don't.
Helluva way to learn about the TT ! It was the opposite with me. I learned about the TT first, which is what got me into circuit racing (what we call road-racing in the USA). If you haven't already done so, check into the history of the TT, including the Surtees, Hailwood and Agostini years, back when the TT was part of the world championship rounds, and every world-class racer HAD to do the TT. Amazing times.
I find it amazing that this race was part of the circuit. One of these years I hope to see it in person but it's a long shot. The riders are giants among men in my opinion and I'm sure in anyone else's opinion who knows about the TT. Take care.
I like to thank all my fans worldwide
love u Johnn😍
Legendary stuff
You're my hero.
My hero!
Thanks John for that bit of info loved it I'm still,wanting to give it a go, does Honda still make the cub,that ought to be a safe enough displacement class,maybe 160 Honda dream,might be a bit quicker lap,cub might be a little to slow I'll probably forget the course and tricky section by the time the cub starts the second lap might be night fall of the second day,ha ha,nah cbr600 should do fine R6,I've been trying to find CBR900RR for years no luck,that looks like the perfect bike for the isle...it really incredible what you guys do,I don't I be wise to go out anything bigger than a 600 for the first time learning bumps and braking zones...thanks again,really get a good idea of how much the road widens and narrows 170 to 180 mph some places looks 8meters in then back out then in again...enjoyed it.
Such a lovely guy. Hope this rubs off on the concentration levels for Guy come this May. Imagine a One, two on the podium for the Senior?!
True, so true . .
so humble....
I think the TT is the ultimate test of motercycle riding ability. I know its hard to compare to the track racers, but these guys are the ultimate racers, rossi etc the track racers, in my opinion are not in the same league as road racers. Road racing the the ultimate test of man and machine.
Anyone know where/how to get the complete onboard of this footage?
how do you get the full version of that??
Commeth the man commeth the moment. And oh! what a man! 😳 i can hold a bike on, but dam! This man is carrying his balls about in a wheelbarrow.
Balls of fucking steel.
I have beers with him a couple time a day, When watching Lockk9's videos. :)
HE IS A GOOD RIDER
Dope
pls people where i can see rus version of all intervius of John McGuinness???? please help me, give me a link. thanks all beforehand
Legend....... lights are on but nobody is at home:))
Legend 👌🏻🇮🇪
John you are a fuckin legend man.smelling the burgers is right lol
Love how he called his one bike a Big Lady , I sure hope that you leave some loving time for your beautiful Becky
go there and you can go round the track the day before :D mad sundays always fun
That motorcycle sounds sweet
what amazes me is how does he hoist his giant brass nads from side to side while riding that fuc*ing fast........flat haulin.......
Truly a bad ass.......... motor biking at 160 plus, smelling the fans BBQ's, he's as cool as butter on ice ........
THE MAN
balls of steel
I will never understand how this race got legalised in a first place. It is utter madness and the skill required is unparalleled to any race on the planet earth. In motor racing you seek to extract the maximum from your equipment. To reach the limit 《pontential》 of what is available to you u have to exceed it at some point to to know what the limit was... but that would almost certainly mean death at a TT race.
Hats off McG, straight down the line, no nonsense, this man represents motorcycle sport full f-ing stop. Got to be a SPOTY at some point...anyway thats another can of Cricket and worm shit.
These men who road race should be the highest payed sports men in the world, so brave
