scenario:
you are making a sweeping, fairly sharp (nothing extreme but definitely noteworthy) corner. the road is in decent condition but has some patches of tar strips used to fix patches. they create small bumps.
coming around the corner at a fairly quick speed (again nothing extreme, just a touch quick) and your rear tire catches one of those slippery tar bumps and starts to slide out. the problem is you are already so close to the edge that you need to bring your bike on line as quickly as possible.
what do you do? remember you dont have much real easte to work with to straighten the bike out and your rear tire is slipping out.
do you gently decrease off the throttle and straighten up as much as possible to use what little real estate you have before you throw yourself back into a lean? or is there another option available here im not aware of?
