Lucky its a SRAD, they crash really well

Posted before - but it's worth watching... there's a very good lesson in it.

See how the 2nd bike (the camera bike) looks for the gap then rides into it? The crash happens and if the rider had focussed on that the tendency would have been to follow the first bike into the grass.

Insetad bike 2 stayed safe AND avoided hitting the first rider.

Good job by bike #2.

Now ... how bike #1 went off is anyone's guess. That corner doesn't look that challenging.

Not a great on road bike either - I mean how hard was it to stay ON that bloody road...?

If you slow it down you can see, he does loose his helmet.

haha, 2 good examples of what not to do..

do ya fu**ing lid up ya to$$er!! see him faceplant at the end.. thats got to hurt.
2ndly, my XL500 would've made that corner, and i know an SRAD gixxer would have it.

that road looks pretty famillia. looks like he hits the white line and goes straight ahead? or just not leaning over enough? and he definatly lost his helmit. and right before #2 bike goes past he gets dropped on his head (or so it looks)
does he also have a yellow plate on?

[wybmadiity]

Bugger!

[avgas]

problem wasn't the bike, was the owner

[Jimmy B]

Looks like total brain fade, took a reasonable line right to begin, froze and binned it...prolly happens all the time

[Korumba]

Nice Trees..I like Trees

[desmo dave]

looks like the dude/dudet froze and decided to baill out. bad idea, stick it out. lucky the 2nd bike had it all under controll and didnt run the other over for good measure.
