Title: It hurts just to watch

It's like bike horror; you know something bad is going to happen but you can't not watch.

Sounds like he kinda goosed it on a quick shift before hitting the bend.  Smooth is your friend.

I am sure he was planning on changing those pipes anyway.

you can really hear him ring out the throttle just before he threw the bike into the turn.

I don't think so, they look like Termis to me.

LMFAO. Thank god he dumped it at low speed. The next corner he might have been doing a 100mph.

Oh that bites. Regardless, I feel for the guy, he was probably really excited and just got over confident.  [bang]

How in the world did he do that?  (Don't tell me, I know, but still . . . . HOW?!?!)

What's even more surprising is that it's this guy:

kinda makes sense the way he was revving it like a supermoto at the start. maybe he didnt adapt his throttle style to the 155 hp

10 seconds of free revving at the start line.
2 seconds of acceleration.
Hours of kicking himself for letting it happen...

Turn?  That was a slight bend, and he lost the rear before he even got there.  Strange crash.
