In the last ten years the TT Races legend has enjoyed success with Honda, Suzuki and Kawasaki. TT 2017 is set to see him take on another new challenge, using a YZF R6 Yamaha engine.

Regarded by many as one of the greatest sidecar racers in TT history and statistically the most successful, he’s as driven and determined to get back to the top as he was, when he first competed on the Mountain Course back in 1985.

Ironically it’s Yamaha machinery that propelled Dave to his first TT success back in 1989, when he won the opening sidecar race with Colin Hardman in the Bregazzi Yamaha outfit.
