cOoTeR Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 From the start of the video you can tell the guy is going to crash. Going left of center on double yellow lines. Then panic breaking mid turn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RHill Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 Wow, video paused to load right as the closing radius appeared and I knew he was absolutely screwed....didnt expect him to stand perfectly uprightThink he even saw the 30-> sign, or was he still thinking about the car he almost road straight into if it was 5 seconds earlier or later?

ScubaCinci Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 (edited) Link didn't work right for me...and did you mean "should NOT play catch up"? What a dumbass...this is why I just slow the fuck down if I'm getting left behind. I had one close call and that was enough for me.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zUpgg1hWh60 Edited November 20, 2012 by ScubaCinci Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scruit Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 Shouldn't the title be NEVER play catchup? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cOoTeR Posted November 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 Yeah I don't know why I put should instead of shouldn't. Maybe one of the mods could help a man out and do their civic duty by fixing the title. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RHill Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 I dont understand people that ride like that; if you cannot maintain your lane, what makes you think you can keep the bike on the road? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReconRat Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 Didn't have the punch to catch up. Should have thought fast and took that side road.Well ok, looked again. He might have tried it, but didn't make it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He might have tried it, but didn't make it.I think he coulda made the turn until he panic breaked and target fixated on The grass and went there. Lucky those trees weren't much closer to the road. Gotta love his gear a light jacket puma shoes and Justin Bieber style skinny jeans. Edited November 20, 2012 by cOoTeR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bowdog Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 What a turd!! Did he think he was the only one on the road? He is lucky he didnt die taking turns in the other lane! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Butters Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 That wasn't even a hard corner to make, and he was getting left in the dust on one of the most capable bikes in production.... Yutt ughh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alienpi Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 My theory is that he was lean steering which resulted in incidental/imprecise counter-steering instead of counter-steering which would give him more crisp corner initiation (he was starting the turns way too early).

BDBGoalie Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 He's lucky he didn't have a head on collision in one of the many times he went left of center.If you can't keep up safely, don't try. Especially trying to make up time in the straights and not braking for the corners. It will go badly for you and potentially others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imaposer Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 Wow. Why in the hell would you post that video online. It's impossible to make that out to be anything other than a ride by a complete putz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's impossible to make that out to be anything other than a ride by a complete putz. My guess is he either put it on Facebook or he put it on a forum to get advice about his crash. Looking at the title I think someone else threw it on YouTube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
