    All Honda fireblade top5 in the superbike race

    Can't say better than that.

    The stocker is a better package than it's competition too so should be a good Honda result in that race too. Ansty said it's the best handling bike he has ever ridden.

    Oh and Honda took the piss in moto GP qualifying too. A good day all in all for them.

    Gutted for Dunlop today. He is having no luck. Every bike has had mechanical problems. I reckon he would have won today. Anstey was superb though for the win

    Yeah he is really riding well thus year.

    Shows how good the honda is really. If guy Martin had stuck with Honda this might have been his year.


    Can't remember a year when so many of the front runners have had mechanical problems though. It's spoiled both the races so far

    Cant belive guy martin stayed on after running over his own leg lol.

    The dunlop bro's deserve a 1 -2, just for the way they flew past the front runners as if it was bone dry... truly balls of steel +1 :)

    The thing I liked about meeting them when I was over there this year for my first TT is how down to earth they are, really cool guys and my god what a step up in skill level when they pass you, I was at Cronk Y Voddy and they flew past me at 170mph + with a corner coming up, the top guys (especially McGuinness) didn't lift off at all.

    You can see some of that footage in my video link down below... amazing riders.
