Hahah, love the little animations. Anyone else would have shat themselves, you were just loving it!
+Phil480 lol, yeah, kinda happens a lot, the beast is great at holding things together though.

Mr B
That'll clear your pipes mate!
Loved the animation :)
+BimbleBoy Blue Yeah lol - Clenched when I saw it coming lol

Mr B
It looked like it was the tarmac change that unsettled it a bit, I don't mind times like this as it makes you realise how good motorcycling is, makes you feel alive, well so long as it's only a near lowside, lol, RSM8, RI.
+Skeggy Cruiser Yeah was that nasty seam, lethal in the wet. Busa just eats those moments, love it.
Cheers Buddy

Mr B
Yeah, smooth tarmac seams, deadly, had that happen on my ZZR1100 at speed in the wet, leaning over, scared me so much I now avoid these seams in the dry!
+Fred Clayson Yeah they are deadly in the wet, any quicker I could of been off!
RSMF-*RI*
Mr B
Watch that little overbanding they use to seal the repairs ! Easy on my Bessie. Not sure how it feels on the Beast..... You did well ! Nice guardian angels.
+vitaly deuterium Never feels good Bro, me and the Beast make a good team though! :o)
RSMF-*RI*
Mr B
That's it. Teamwork !
Amazing bit of editing there buddy lol
+MNX 2 Wheels 4 Blades Yeah it's all fake ;o) Nah just kidding, thanks Bro!
RSMF-*RI*
Mr B

+WheelsNotHeels Thanks Wheels! I'm pretty glad too!! lol

Mr B x
Overbanding sucks! Stay safe
+craig walsh Yeah I hate the stuff, no thought for Bikes!
Cheers Bro!

Mr B
might it be that your suspension settings are on the hard side and hence unforgiving over irregular surfaces? I always run settings as soft as possible especially for uneven surfaces and the wet. Just my preference from over 50 years of riding. Hard settings suggest be keep for racing.
+Rhubarb Crumble In this case I think a little less pressure in the tyre may have helped, but overall, these things are deadly slippery!
Cheers Bro

Mr B

+wyvernbiker Thanks mate, I don't want to go down either! er.... that sounded wrong!
RSMF-*RI*
Mr B
Tarmac seams, white lines, metal grates, cats eyes.... dead animals.....
+RevvedUpBiker Green Bicycle signs, All road markings! lol - and road kill lol
RSMF-*RI*
Mr B
Bet that made your sphincter go 50p 5p 50 5p.. lol.
+Rhin0Neil All went tight as soon as I saw it coming, then loosened off when I was clear lol
RSMF-*RI*
Mr B
Nerves of steel.......really hate those tarmac joints, and white lines, metal grates......weather is changing mate, time for some serious concentration!
+Big E (WestCoastGPZed) Yeah, always on the ball, but that was ultra slippery!
RSMF-*RI*
Mr B
I hope you had the left leg out like a moto-hooligan??
Happens quick mate, luckily that was "merely a flesh wound" but can be a lot worse. if you were a new rider, all tensed up, could have been a "I crashed" video - glad it wasn't.
RSMF RI
+CaptainCranky no time to get me leg out lol! Saw it coming and just thought stay lose and don't "Let it go!" ;)
Cheers Mate
