so there's just a bunch of guys just hanging out right there waiting to see everyone wreck their bikes?
also I wonder if that is the most wrecked spot for motos in North America?

There's a big big area there where people can pull off, turn around etc. There's photog who set up there, much like Killyboy on deals gap. They take photos of folks going by, and then hope to sell those photos. Being outside LA one can see all sorts of exotics going through there, mostly driven by Jay Leno it seems.
So no, they are not specifically waiting for a crash. Just getting photos/video of all the traffic coming through. When you watch it all, that encompasses crashes/ crap driving/ good driving etc.

I'm no expert and would like to hear what others here have to say... but looks to me like he's got his upper body crossed up putting way too much lean angle on the bike and asking a small (and possibly cold) part of the tire to do more work than it wants to. Prob trying to strike a "cool" pose for the cameras... He's certainly not fast in that turn.
I'm also surprised how much damage his bike sustains after.

his rear tire starts to slip on the apex while on the yellow line... very slippery?

i dont know that turn first hand, but it looks to me that he's passed the apex. i also found a compilation of close calls before and it looks like the back steps out on a good amount of people at that spot though...i'll see if i can find it again
i do think it's a little funny that the back end of the bike basically disintegrates...

It looks like he has a small slide, then starts to doubt his success and removes weight from his pegs/bars (crouching). No weight = no traction. Full slide as a result.

Doesn't look to me like he got to the line.
Close, but not on it.
He did, however, continue opening the throttle as he leaned the bike more.
That's a good way to end up on the ground.

+1 on keepin the trottle open. If the tires would have found grip it would have been a nasty highside. Who the hell parks their bikes in those corners? You must not like your bike. |
