    I still get a laugh out of watching him on his new Gixxer and in matching suzuki leathers go 10 metres and drop it.

    how did he do that... lets examine it what did he do wrong... any one... any one

    We should use these videos to teach what not to do and then explain what happens and why

    Man, the original video... poor guy.

    I agree with one of the posters on the Youtube page, he doesn't seem too squid-y to me. Full leathers, didn't grab too much of a handful, was riding relatively sensibly. Are they really that torquey (I've only taken a GSXR600 for a pootle), or has perhaps the valet gone a bit overboard with the tyre polish?

    Same thoughts as NighthawkNZ -- can anybody explain to this little 250 rider exactly what went wrong there?

    From what I can tell, he put to much power on when he was trying to straighten up. A bit of a fish tail while still powering on and over he goes joe. I need to watch it a couple more times though to really examine it.

    Someone else nay have a better idea or see it better than I

    My thinking is he's in a car park, there may be a small amount of oil or diesal on the road. He gives it a bit, no traction and the bike goes down.

    Stone cold tyres bran new tyers + Oil on or other slipary substance in carpark + possible over polishing with tyre polish = The end result you have seen.

    For the record Qkkid was in my bed, not the other way round
