YouTube - 2011 WSBK Donington - Maxime Berger crash analysis

 

lol the pit crew was all like

oh shyte, forgot to ahhh tighten that ahh *chases butterfly*

was that a single sided swingarm ?

 

gotta be single sided the way it came off. thats insane.....

 

nope its just a ducati 1198 if you look closely you can see the swingarm. i have no idea how that happens though. Maybe one of the spokes snapped and then everything just went to hell from there? probably cf wheels

 

1198 is single sided.....theres no way that could happen like that with a normal swingarm unless the axle backed out or broke in which case the wheel would be whole not broken.

 

Good thing I just bought shinko's

 

rim broke. think about those light azz OZ rims. there's not much to them. it looks like just the tire is flying off, but if you see some still shots, you can actually see the outer part of the rim inside the tire still and the axle part of the rim still on the bike. it has nothing to do with the fact that the swingarm was single sided. it was all rim. in my eyes, if it were a double sided swinger, i think it would have been worse if a wheel had snapped. it'd be thrown into the subframe, oh man, thats some crazy stuff. i bet anyone who has OZ's on their bike is cringing and getting pretty nervous to ride

here's a pic of what happened

 

Oh yeah they did switch back to the single sided swingarm after the xx9 bikes my mistake. Thats crazy conrice...i figured the spokes had to break or something.

 

ya man, i'm gettin ready to do a SSSA conversion on my fighter... so naturally, when i saw that, i flipped and started researching hahahahaha. glad to figure out it was all rim.
