McGuinness at the TT
 
Its the Honda he got on short notice for the 600 Supersport, no spare leathers ? What leathers is planning to wear on the Zero hairdryer ?

That “hairdryer bike” may surprise some with it’s performance .... got to like all fast things on wheels or wings , eh
 
Only Norton to finish 8th

Peter Hickman
Norton Motorcyc...

120.26 mph Last lap avg speed
 
Best of the 3 was Peter Hickman who came 8th I believe after the other 2 retired on the first lap
 
McGuinness has just gone through Sulby at 176mph on the battery bike 5 seconds behind Rutter.
 
Rutter wins at 121.91 mph, McGuinness 2nd 120.98, Davey Todd out.
 
Peter Hickman went through the Sulby speed trap at 156 mph, a very creditable top speed, but he finished 49 seconds adrift of the winner's time. Hickman is a top rider around the IOM circuit, so it's hardly likely he was directly responsible for the deficit, so where is the Norton Superlight still short on performance ?
McGuiness and Todd failed to finish, seems like Norton still have work to do.
