TT 08 and a MV Augusta - Shaun Harris - 13-12-2007
Just checking the water here, and trying to get the rumour mill going for me and a MV
I have been offered a very very well prepared MV for the superstock class at the TT next year, ( Mechanic of my own choice) unfortunately, the bike comes from a forign country to that side of the world, ( Ireland included) so the team would require some serious cash funding to make this possible, so if any one has any possible healthy leeds, please inform them, and you know how to get back in touch me!!
I had a 2 hour test session at a race track here in New Zealand the other day, and I still totally LOVE THE RACE GAME, I am really doing incredibly well physically, and know that I will be in great shape by May, June next year, no worries at all
I hate the fact that I smashed myself to bits like I did ( My mechanic and myself have worked out a mechanical part failure on the bike, which 99.9% caused my crash ( NOT A SUZUKI PART)
So I have now decided, that if I can put the best team/deal together for me, I will be back there next year, and going for it, not dribbling around. woo hoo cannot weight.

Shaun,
you cannot keep a good man down.
Its that ......Fastest Indian.... syndrome again!
I for one wish you every success with your plan.
If you can get past medicals and licensing hurdles
then go for it.
So, all you wealthy sponsors?
Talk to the "Bert Munro ll "

It was the late great Stanley Woods that said.............

cheers that man
medical and license will be no problem at all, in fact, I did my medical test for a GP yesterday, and passed with an extra 20 pushups for a laugh at him
I cannot really believe just how much I really want to get this done :wink:

What a great tie-up and if you could get McGuinness to be your wing man it would be an unbeatable team !!
Oh Shaun I wish you all the luck in the world, but take care fella.
Have a Great Christmas

Shaun
I was watching you on TT DVD 2003 I think at the weekend when
you won two TT races. (Some great riding).
I would love to see you race 2008 and an MV would be a great Bike to race on.
Best of luck with everything.

You have to wonder what goes on upstairs with some people!! Crazy, its lunacy
hotel - ian huntly - 20-12-2007
Shaun, can you remember which hotel in which you and Doug were staying in total discomfort when I met you on the prom. We ended up at my Onchan residence with garage and all mod cons. That made it a better start to your TT than that boxroom on the prom !!!
I cannot remember which hotel it was ....
Can you ?
If so please send me a PM
