Overcautious, naw, parinoid sounds more appropriate.

My one and only speeding ticket on a motorcycle (in 44 years of riding) was on the Deckers route, 72mph in a 35 zone. But the kindly officer reduced it after discovering my age and seeing the amount of very slow moving traffic I was trying to escape from. I also want to add that this corner is a tricky one and as gsxrscott pointed out, you just have to trust the bike to do what it needs to do even when you don't think you yourself can do it. I always look where I need to go, target fixate on your line, the correct line will always get you through the corner unless your way too fast going in. My old GSXR1000 did things I didn't think was possible for me to do. The power never scared me, but demanded a lot of respect and knowledge of when and where to pull it trigger. It was a bike you could ride at 5-7k rpm and still keep up with everyone else was nearly redlining their bikes to oblivion. This made it a very relaxing bike to ride, and let me concentrate on staying on the road. Glad everybody is ok. Poor bikes,,,,sob!

I remember when I first laid my 03 600rr on Hawthorne Rd. in Golden Gate. Downhill going too fast on a literally 15 mhp curve. Thank goodness no else was coming up the other direction. The bike and myself just went off the road about 15 feet. It took 3 of us to get it out. Road rash on right side on bike. I was ok , but definitely bummed....I wish I brought a camera that day.
