Dont know if anyone else saw this. Some dude on the snake riding a DRZ400 wearing a helmet cam. I forget his name but he is a nice guy.

Locked the rear? He was almost out of the turn. How'd that happen?

edit: Wait, I get it. Didn't lock. He spun the rear with too much gas coming out of the turn.

Based on personal experience, it looks like he lost grip and chopped the throttle.
