Adrenalita niesamowita. ;) I zabawa też przednia. Tylko szkoda trochę, że tak się skończyło (choć znając nas to ktoś musiał skończyć na glebie, nie odpuścilibyśmy xd ).
It was a combination of closing throttle (which compressed the front suspension) and braking too hard in the corner (which compressed suspension even further ;D). After previous session front brake started to fade, so the rider adjusted brake lever for that. But he forgot to switch it back for the race. Because of that (and because of muscle memory) he braked harder than he intended to.
Short answer: yes. Long answer: My friend on GS 500 wanted to overtake me (duke 390) on that right curve, but then he hesitated and tapped his front brakes. And it wouldn't be that bad if it wasn't for changed settings on brake lever. In previous session his brakes started to fade, so he change lever setting to give him more leverage - and he didn't undo it for the race.
Raced my classmate's ktm 350 with my gs 500e lost and on the way to his place went in a dirt corner too fast and wanted to stop in the grass,got to the grass and infront was a low suege well wich was green (at night time) and flew 2 m in the air from the colision flew in between two fuse boxes thank god didnt hit them am ok but my baby lost a rim and the speedometer otherwise everything ok hope ur beastmachine serves u good love from Latvija
You're right. ;) There was more than one reason for that lowside, but the main one is that the rider forgot to readjust the brake lever. Brakes started fading in previous session, so he ended up changing position of brake lever. So he didn't expect brakes to bite as much as they did. :P
Parafrazując, "every bike is a race bike if you dare to race it" ;) Prawdę mówiąc sprawdza się całkiem nieźle. Przydałoby się więcej mocy, ale na małym torze nie jest to specjalnie odczuwalne (a radość z wyprzedzenia litra bezcenna). ;D
Nice skills, good bike, bad luck. Greetings from Spain mate!
Zapewne dużo emocji podczas takiego wyścigu. Delikatny szlif, moto napewno całe. Rywalizacja do samego końca ;) pozdrawiam

Hey man, can i use this video in my new Compilation (Motorcycle crashes)? i will give you full credit in my description and comments section!
Sure ;)
Hey mate, would it be OK to feature this clip in my next compilation. Thanks,
Sure. ;)
so .. did you dump it cause you used the front brake in a turn ... or something else?

MotoHolota So I was half right ... thought it was just the brakes cause the way it slid out from under you.
I'd say you were right, closing the throttle is part of braking. ;) And braking was a nail to the coffin. ;D
MotoHolota oh well ... shit happens lol good learning experience as they say
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. ;]
freiou na curva??????
Sorry, I don't understand. ;)
Did you brake on the bend?

The important thing is that you're fine, bikes are replaceable. ;)
Front brakes!

MotoHolota yea correct indeed!
a ja myślałem, że GS na tor sie nie nadaje

the tyre size on this model bike is for laughs .
