There is a lesson to be learnt here. Keep the damn camera pointed in the right direction!

indeed, the ground shots are just wrong, especially when all the action is out of view!!!!

I would have been more inclined to 'don't total your new harley with 400 miles on the clock', but no...camerawork.

Bugger....I was hoping for an Honda XR75 wheelie...

Seriously though, that's not good. The rider okay?

Knoblies and raised front guard really work on that bike.


(I could try my whole life, bet I'd never ever do that (on any bike).)

Shame the guy was in the way as I couldn't really see what went wrong.

He seemed to fall to the left but I am preuming that he just went a little too high and failed to correct.

After a bang like that, I wouldn't trust the bike till it had been fully checked.

Sort of puts you off.
