  6. Wasnt there one running there this year? A privateer, so the real core of the event and one of the many reasons its such an amazing event

  13. ahh ok .

    well i tell thee somethin now , there needs to be a team which uses a panigale , because that bike would be an awesome winner if it won . get carl fogarty out of retirement and on a 1199 panigale and then jobs a gooden !!

  17. Perhaps a rucksack with a gallon can & a hose with a tap on it attached to the fool tank?(spl,lol)How about filling up that aero-hump on his leathers with 3 litres? Good for 20 miles!

  18. How big is the tank they run in World Superbike? Must be a solution. Michael Rutter usually does the TT and if he's not on a Kawasaki next season I wouldn't be surprised to see him on a Panigale.

  19. A quick Google of Foggy at the I.O.M.
    Fogarty broke the lap record at the Isle of Man TT in 1992. His lap at 18 minutes, 18.8 seconds (123.61 mph) on a Yamaha 750cc wasn't broken until seven years later by Jim Moodie from a standing start riding a Honda RC45 in 1999, taking the record to 124.45 mph.
