[dblaze]

Any ideas as to how this guy lost control of the bike?

This has got to be every motorcyclists words nightmare.

UH,,,,, Brand new tires are slick when you lay it over and crank on it.

Videos like that make me glad I started on my lill 250...

Tire shine and wax.

Dan did some research and found the reason for this crash.... :BLAA:

I did read somewhere that the stealership failed to tighten the rear end of this bike on the predelivery inspection , causing the back wheel to kick & bucked him off :thumbup: Dealer replaced the lot straight away , no questions asked...

 

[lonesoldier84]

lol, well that's one internet mystery put to bed then. that video has been everywhere.

I always thought it was cold tires. Keep it a mystery! It will scare all the noobs into thinking about their tires at the start of a ride. It did for me.....

at least the dude was in full gear, a one piece leather suit no less. too much throttle for sure. funny for sure.

Classic! :BLAA:

look how shiny those showroom tires are. New tires, slick asphalt, 1000 cc's=fall down.

Flashback Friday man...this vid is as old as the internet :spank:

Never get tired of the "Show Off Fail" vids though....

Not trying to discredit Daniels research. If I remember correctly I think another reason offered for the "Off". Was that the dealership was waxing / shining the tyres with something to make them look lovely. The rear does look pretty mirror like in the video?
Either way I would hope that the damage was covered.
It would be a totally gutting experience for the owner. Personally I don't think they were showing off. Just excited about a new bike.
