Here’s one of me at Alcarras on the new Beemer And a video of me getting some tuition from the main man Hicky
I think if you were on the same day you are behind him in one of his pics how was the beemer compared to the 899?!
yeah looks like the same event. That’s Hickman in the yellow leathers. The Beemer is an amazing piece of kit, much much better than the 899 and that’s the reason why the 899 is on eBay. If/when it sells I’m probably going to replace it with a Gen 3 Beemer solely for the track and keep the Gen 4 as a road bike
Yes mate, I think you’re actually in that video I just posted haha - I’ve probably got a fair bit of footage of you, as will Dave (might not be actually just noticed the yellow sticker, we were in red)
it’s a video of a video haha yeah there was BMW’s everywhere! Not many of the new shape though, Pete had one with him but was on his gen 3 a fair bit. There was two in the fast group, one in all black and the other in road trim. And maybe a handful more of the new shape dotted about. hundreds of the earlier gen
dave Monners went past one on his gen 3 down the front straight haha there was only one legit hp4 race, the others were lookalike jobs. The legit one was the black and white tyco coloured bike
Did Monners fly past the legit one? Of course it all depends who hits the gas first.... or nowadays who's electronic pixies lays it down best. I followed a (genuine) HP4 Race round Donington. Bloody fast bike! But you'd expect that tbf
yeah Monners went past the legit one. as you say there’s fast bikes and fast riders. I lapped the same bike god knows how many times on my 600 haha
Oh right, yeah that's true. As long as we're all having fun, that's the main thing.... Well, actually no. As long as we're all stuffing our rivals in pit garage, that's the main thing
