    Knowing nothing about the TT course or suspension, I would still hazzard a guess that being a bunch of streets, as opposed to a smooth race track, they would have the suspension softer and more compliant to deal with the bumps otherwise the bike would be uncontrollable.

    Flip side of that is bottoming things out... perhaps they need dual sport bikes for longer travel suspension

    It's barking mad and if it doesn't turn you into a complete loon within half an hour of cocking a leg over the lofty 875mm seat height, I'll eat my Arai.

    By hitting the bottom of Bray Hill at 160mph or the bottom of Barregarrow at around 140mph!! I'm guessing the weight of their balls doesn't help with bottoming out either!! He he.

    The simplest answer is usually the best.
    Grazie mille Marco.
