After completing 240 miles of our 300 mile journey today I had the honor of testing the integrity of my right boot by smacking it to the pavement for an in turn adjustment when the nose pushed out (I know, motoX days are supposed to be behind me). I was going about 30mph through a sharp right turn up a hill and just past the apex of the corner the nose washed out - my foot was down before I could blink and all was well. I saw nothing to cause it except rider error being to hot on the throttle, but honestly that doesn't hold up well either as I wasn't being all that aggressive. IDK - I didn't have time for look-see for gravel and I didn't go back check but it was in low gear tho. On a 1 - 10 emotional impact to rider performance I'll give it 2 as over it within a couple of corners. . .
That's twice I've had my foot down and saved it. The gravel tested the left boot last year (compliments of the county road patch in the middle of a switchback) and now this. So far all is OK but I wish I understood this one better.
mxgolf, does NW Logie Trail Road ring a bell? I'm guessing you've ridden it before. . .
