I'm on 285, everybody is going a pretty good speed (70+). I'm doing about 80, for some reason last night these 2 import cars along with their buddies decide they are going to block off so that they can race. The guy in front of me slams the brakes so i swerve to avoid him and almost slam into the back of two civics going almost 10 mph. I let off the throttle which causes, i think what is called a tank slap and luckily i wobble right in between the two cars. Its times like these i'm happy i don't have a gun.

 

ps. Thank god for GPR

 

f^cking honda owners! uh wait a minute..........nevermind.

 

i woulda pulled out the .38 and shot there tires out... or atleat runned emdown and flicked emoff... ppl just dont relieze bikes cant stop on a dime....

 

yeah i would've if i had a gun but i guess thats why i dont

 

No reason to lower your IQ to their level. Just be thankful it didn't end up being a worse situation than just a angry post on a forum. Glad you're safe.

tank slap is dangerous... very few people can get out of it once it starts.... i was always told if i ever get into that situation , leave it alone and either wait for the bike to slow down slapping or take the fall... consider ur self lucky

 

I consider myself lucky, or more like blessed everyday after surviving my first accident on this bike.

 

Never heard of Tank Slap. Looked it up:
