i dont think he locked his rear brake up cause there is no skid mark behind the bike at all??????on my bike it would have left a big long skid mark if i look up the brake goin as fast as he was;;;;had to be a new rider

 

Damn that's gotta hurt....

 

i think he didn't leave a mark because he didn't have enought weight on the rear tire to.he locked up the break for sure that one time the bike started to come around, then he letup a little but not all the way.I think thats the reason he was having trouble turning because the bike wanted to keep standing up.who knows but i really feel for the guy. i hope he made it.

 

Why did the bike jerk like that right when he started to turn? I saw a rider do that on the MotoGP video, but he didn't crash.

 

Damn he's lucky he didn't go over the cliff. They also spelled Kawsaki wrong...LOL!

 

Did he down shift into to low of a gear with out reving the engine. THe rear light is on when it comes into view, cant tell if it is brake or normal operating light.

 

I think he got to the turn in the road and freaked cause he was going too fast and saw the wall. When he tried to slow down he hit his rear break, but since he was turning at the time the rear end got a little squirley on him. Ultimately he fixated on the wall, stood the bike up, and rode straight into it.

 

EMERGENCY BRAKING TECHNICS WERE OBVIESLY NOT USED HERE[sm=signs006.gif]

 

this is just a reminder that even a good rider can be caught up not paying attention and something like this can happen.maybe whoever was filming him pulled his attention away.

 

first of all, i dont know if you could classify this guy as a good rider. did anybody see him trying to put his foot down? he also pulled the clutch in right before he went to lean, then it started to slide and he freaked. i dont know what he was trying to do, doesnt look like anything, he ran right into that wall. at my MSF class they taught s to look where we wanted to go, and it works. look into the turn. look at the ground, thats where you will end up.

and boy is he lucky he didnt go over that wall, the last thing he would have had to worry about would have been that Kawsiki! i noticed it too Pitsvtec.
