      You get loads of warning with pegs and exhausts. They make an obvious noise for the rider and kick the bike back, rather than making you slide out. You've got to be pretty dense to manage to pivot off of a peg. Plus road bikes pegs generally fold up anyway. This dude just had it all wrong.

    @Bayliss21 Před rokem +3078

    List of things to do before you ride corners at the limit. Ensure your pegs and exhaust are high enough for a significant lean angle. Check your tire pressures and use tires that are designed for BOTH the track & street riding. Learn to limit the lean angle of the bike by moving your head over the inside bar. Never steer always counter steer and use lean to corner, never grab the brake after you've entered the corner, never chop the throttle, always look way down the road through the turn. Do all of this consistently and practice at the track and you'll probably never low side if you don't go right to the edge of traction. Also know your conditions, road temp, gravel, humidity and dampness of road surface.

      yeah the FZ is very peg scrape happy and this was like half way down the tail of the dragon. you can see him just scrape pegs in every corner and this corner he just scraped a little to much. you can scrape pegs but there comes a point where the peg will bend up and then your foot blockingit from going any higher creates a leverage point to lift the bike a little and that's enough to slip the rear.

    The black mark from the front tyre starts about 3feet before the foot peg mark and if keep focused on either of his hands you will see the handlebars turn then the black line appears !! The first thing to scrape on an FZ1 that era is the foot peg then if there is any slight dip or unevenness in the surface the next thing to scrape is the centre stand more so on the RHS before the LHS, this could explain the puff of what looked like dust moments before the h/bars turn & the black line starts to appear

Was not an insignificant amount or distance from the road, either, it was all over down the road and a death trap for bikes and even some cars as it comes out of nowhere with no warning of a hidden drive on a blind corner.
      Anyways, I think I set a record for world's faster log roll after I went down and stopped a few feet short of a telephone pole. This dude impresses me at the amount of control and awareness he has in his slide, whereas physics, inertia, and a ditch made me their b!t¢h.

    Watch how fast he lets go of his right arm and notice the front tire skid mark. He used his front brakes and once it locked up and got squirrely he bailed rather than just letting the bike correct itself and straightening back up.

    Can’t tell if he added too much throttle in the wrong part of the corner, or if he overcorrected when he saw he might go wide.
    Looks like when he lost the back wheel he already had the bike leaning too low to make any adjustments; as soon as he wobbled, his bike was on the ground (probably because of the peg as people have mentioned.)
