Hickman still planning to use Superbike in Isle of Man Senior TT despite issues
Peter Hickman plans to still race his Superbike-spec BMW in the 2023 Isle of Man Senior TT on Saturday, despite encountering unnerving issues on it this event.

Jun 8, 2023, 12:50 PM
The FHO rider finished second in Sunday's Superbike TT having come close to beating the outright lap record at 135.445mph on a bike with brake and quick-shifter issues.
On the same M1000RR in Superstock trim, Hickman stormed to his first win of the 2023 TT in Tuesday's first outing for the class.
This has led to questions about him potentially racing his Superstock bike in the Senior finale on Saturday.
But speaking to Motorsport.com on the Isle of Man on Thursday, he insists the plan is still to race the Superbike, and he will try some more changes in Friday and Saturday's solo warm-up laps.
