A funny addition to my post above was that my buddy who worked the parts counter at the shop was on the PA (public announcement) transferring phone call while he witnessed the crash and like one of the English Super Bike race announcers for WSB yelled "Ooohh he's down!" His timing was perfect. [sm=yikesomg.gif]

 

A couple friends of mine who worked at the shop I bought my bike from says it actually happens a lot.

 

I'd just washed my bike and used a scrub brush for the tire it seem to help a little. Thanks for the info.

 

Find a good place to do a side to side warm up and roll with it.
