yeah was actually caused by the rear hub shearing off from the spokes .... wheel failure !
Same thing happened to Robert Dunlop in the 94 IOM TT ..... be he was injured badly in that one

hahah no i wish it was i was just obsessed with the 916s when i was in like 4th grade. The guy around the corner from me had a 748 that id always go and stare at. They were what really got me into bikes and stuff. So it was more of a stalker type of a love
