Mmmm, the wonderful sound of a big 2 stroke. Still miss it. 😢

Sheene was such a smooth rider, closing up on the cornering but lacking that bit of power on the straight, he’s a much missed personality, like James Hunt, both were top quality.

Heart hurts for those of this era that we lost far too soon, Barry was a great rider and did so much for Australian motorsport after his retirement, wish he was still around today.

people say Roberts was better... but considering Sheenes accidents..especially the 2nd when he obliterated his legs... its incredible he came back from them.. and still raced at the top.. great memories regardless who was your fave rider.. .. .. remember waiting outside his caravan at mallory in 76 aged 10 for an autograph.. but he was busy so i got Katayama's and dave potter instead..... great times

Bloke was a English icon. Met him a few times in the late seventies and an absolute gent! Took the time to talk to you and have pictures taken in the paddocks of various racetracks. RIP ❤️

A fantastic guy ,always my hero ,taken too young. A lovely man.

I met him at Phillip Island in 1996 when Mick Doohan won another World Title. Barry Sheen had charisma And Was One Of The Best Bike Racing Comentators Back Then.

I was never a Barry Sheene fan, I was more old school, Mike The Bike and John Hartle. BUT you have got to appreciate his skill and guts. His demeanour in his final days was unbelievable. Not sure that many of us could have performed so well whilst in the grips of cancer. Thanks Bazza for keeping the flag flying

Always had a smile on his face. Helped so many of the younger riders. A great character if ever there was.

Gave Daniese his idea for a back protector and took no money for it just to help out his fellow riders. Thanks Barry! RIP

every kid growing up in the 70,s wanted to be barry on a suzuki , number 1 bloke and here to many !

I love hearing all my old hero's names being called they were the days .

Man we miss people like Barry Sheen, don't we?

I remember watching Barry when I was still at primary school. It seems like yesterday, dad took us boys to see him race all the time for years, still look up to him as a hero and still after all these years, cannot believe he has passed away, what a guy.

Gave Barry a lift in my van at silverstone gp 1981 on Stowe corner I was marshaling got my picture in MCN with barry carrying his helmet Crosby wouldn't get in my van they had words but didn't last bazza took croz up in helicopter Bazza my hero miss him no one comes close now RIP my friend

i live in Sawley, Long Eaton. this is my local track. i've spent countless hours here watching races over the years, watching who, i didn't know at the time, were to become iconic names in racing. i feel truly honoured that i can, and do, trackdays on my R1, in the very same tyre tracks as these awesome riders. all of them, every single one of them , awesome riders.

I love the style of these bikes. RIP to all that have pushed it to the end.

I was only racing at Donington 2 weeks ago against 'Rocket' Ron Haslam in a CB500 endurance race.....He's still bloody quick and not surprisingly ended up winning it along with the other 2 members of his endurance team.

Amazing, he pledged to race for the fans, sheene made a few mistakes but he kept to his pledge!!

Roger Marshal does a talk at lunchtime on the old days at Cadwell Park BSB. This is just on BSB radio and for the hordes. Golden times, I could listen all day, the laughs they had before the Corporates took over......
