Motorbikes and corners

A lot going down there on that corner, Most times its the back end stepping out or foot pegs digging in.

 

My mate and my other mate was on the back of his CBR400RR up the cat and fiddle and he got too low and the peg dug in, Both got flipped off, They were fine but the bike wasnt, I was just behind them and seen it all, Not nice seeing someone come off infornt of you, But we all know the risks with bikes :D

Worst I've had is like the very last guy where the back end just skips, the bike flipped me up so I was doing a handstand on the bars for what felt like an eternity for me. Shit me up for months, I still don't think I can ride as fast as I could before it happened.

 

I've never had the footpegs dig in, I don't think I get low enough for that :D

can't really understand why they keep falling off, they seem to be taking the corner nicely and I am guessing the tyres are nice and warm from that weather. There must be loads of sand on the surface of the road, or if the pegs are digging in the tarmac must be soft.

It's good that they don't warn anyone that there is something on the road, and just stand there watching them all crash. Good work. Twats.

 

There isn't anything on the road other than skin and egos as far as I can see, plenty of bikes and cars make it round OK.

Teflon coated tarmac. Non stick. :)
