    Nice road though, great scenery. I reckon he got target fixation; there was plenty more cornering left in the bike.

    the corner was signposted so most likely as if they used the same standards as they do in nz the corner speeds are worked out on a machine so are uniform.
    Nevertheless he worked well getting between the cars and no target fixating there and if it was nz there would've been shit on the on the edge by the armco but there was a squeal of tires so lucky here. (mind you american cars in the movies can squel their tyres on the desert even!)

    Ahhh right....what?

    I've done been watching the Twist of the wrist II moving pictures on that there magic window and trying to stuff knowledges in my head. I done thinkin the SR's start when yer bum opens to take a bite of yer strides and finishes when its gnawed through to the seat foam, from that point on is just crashing.

    Naaa ... sometime back in the early 1970s I managed exactly that ... (Round a left-hand corner in, I think, Mona Vale in Chch ... )
    Pretty much as wanpo describes ...

    I now know to wind on the throttle and crank it over with countersteering ... not easy on a Trumphy 650 with 12 inch ape hangers tho' ...

    Nope.

    SSRI. Serotonin Selective Re-uptake Inhibitor.

    Serotonin as posted above is a mood-enhancing molecule made by the brain. A neurotransmitter. It's a calmer cousin of adrenaline (epinephrine).

    In some people serotonin gets disposed of too quickly, before it has a chance to work through the brain. That leads to depression.

    SSRIs are molecules which slow down the absorption of this neurotransmitter.
