BUT, it looks like you're learning from this one though, so keep at it!!! The best riders are the ones who learn from every mistake they make and apply it. Good luck and stay safe. You're only allowed one post in this section of the forums

Your right. i am aware it could happen again and am still kind of scared at "target fixation". i went on another cruise tonight and im building the confidence back up. looking through turns that is.

I had 100's of laps before my fast lowside crash on buttonwillow raceway. "I knew technique" back then so what happened?? I took that turn many times and I was fine. What happened that time?
See where I'm getting at? Just cause you "did it before" doesn't mean you're ready for it next time (well you know that by now).
In any case, good luck. Not trying to be an a$$ here I just know what overconfidence does to people.  |
What did happen that time?
yeah i know what your saying and i agree with you. Thanks for the advice man. Really set me back down on earth. btw. u got a r6. i love u.
What do you guys say is the best way to practice? just go out on some twisties and keep practicing?
