So who was the ding-bat from Invers that binned near Owaka last night?

Shoulda binned near Moeraki, woulda saved him all the effort and stress of trying to outrun the cops for the next 150 k's.

And his rear brakes might not have let him down.

His cornering got wilder and loser just before his bin, reckoned it was because his rear-brake faded too much??

(There's a thought he was over-cooking the corners and using his rear brake so as not to 'stand-up' the bike by braking mid-corner using the front brakes. But that's just conjecture and guesswork)

YZF-R15 at 170ks?

**PrincessBandit** · 27th May 2011, 21:19

I wonder if he still thinks running was a great idea. I'm sure he thought it was at the time.

Officer I didn't crash, I just parked at speed and had a bit of a lie-down.

He picked a poor place to crash, when you get that far south, you never know what the locals will do with you, and a good road side beating would be the nicest thing they could do!
