The 1912 Isle of Man TT races were again held over the Isle of Man TT Mountain Course. Several manufacturers complained that the new mountain course was too arduous and threatened to boycott the 1912 races.
With an Indian clean sweep the previous year the British manufacturers' pride was dented but even with a smaller entry the Junior race held on Friday, 28 June, in the rain that challenged the belt-driven machines giving the advantage to the chain-driven ones. The works Douglas motor-cycles of W.H. Bashall and E.Kirkham taking the first two places in the Junior TT race of 1912.[1]
The Senior TT was held on Monday 1 July 1912 with the two-stroke Scott motor-cycle of F.A. Applebee winning the race.[2] This was the first ever two-stroke Isle of Man TT win.[3]
