richard_m_h Posted May 4, 2011 Report Share Posted May 4, 2011 I can see he's lost it but can't work out what he did. brainfade? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_6D6lZ62Rw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bones Posted May 4, 2011 Report Share Posted May 4, 2011 My guess is that he's got off the gas and touched the front brake, whilst the bike was leaned too far over. Opps! Pushing it, just a tad too far. That's racing. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bullet Posted May 4, 2011 Report Share Posted May 4, 2011 well, I can tell you, (as it's my Local track), that part of the circuit is quite difficult. You come off the hairpin and accelerate very hard and then you have to turn and brake all at the sametime. That's basically what's happened, he's overbraked on the front tyre. You normally brake where the kerb starts on the inside. (you can see he's just passed that as the front folds) Bullet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasonzilla Posted May 4, 2011 Report Share Posted May 4, 2011 Could it have been a hard brake and steering input to go left? The front tire launches to the right when it starts to slide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
