Well it was going to happen some time. At least I was going slow. Didn't do to much to the bike. Another great video by slo1299. I felt something like this right before while and after.

At least your bike didn't have too much personality afterwards. Crazy how you were hanging onto the bike even after you went down!!!!
pretty lucky it continued to slide out like that... losing the rear usually means flight time

I would imagine thats exactly what my SM looked like when I wrecked it... that sucks, man! Glad I had left by then. You guy were pretty quick out there. Any pics of the bike?
I think that If I didn't go wide that wouldn't have happened.
Yeah, there is a lot of gouges along the outer half of that turn, thought there looked to be a greasy spot. Thought it could have been just in my head so I try to avoid that area since I had already been down on the same turn along with a couple of others already.
Glad you didn't get hurt Leo.
That puppy just let loose.
Were you on the rear brake or downshifting?
(+1 on the "Any landing you can walk away from" sentiment too.)
Be assured that a walk through the ocean of most souls would scarcely get your feet wet.
Props for slowster hanging on like a champ haha
Hopefully they can fix that turn because my bike gets squirrely on that turn sometimes.
Hope to see you out there again soon
That's what happens when you have 36+ lbs in your tires
im sure that better than 10lbs on the front lolThat's what happens when you have 36+ lbs in your tires
I did but that was the funny part
just trying to get to 30/30 because I am retarded sometimes
you are exactly right... keep in mind being 'off line' is going to have
1) zero or negative camber
2) very little rubber or heat from other vehiles
3) crap, dust and dirt not cleaned off because of other riders never riding in that area, accumlation of scrubbed off rubber (aka marbles)... think cartoons... marbles under the feet = not good things
And if you did have 36lbs in the rear
Tire pressure is as important as a helmet on a track... it really is that crutial.

I think that the scooter gang rubbed pizza grease on your tire! Bastards!

thanks for the call slowster, i was worried when i found out last night. i went down in the exact same place a few months ago, thanks for frame sliders (and a 6'4" man between the bike and the ground! lol.) next time just let go, you could've been really hurt! thank god you're okay....

No, no down shifting or on the brake. Just a little gas.
