I just went to look at the scene, now that I have my wits about me. The tire mark visible in the picture must be from the tire slipping. I will learn from this, and ride again. One thing I learned is my leather jacket is NOT going to cut it (no armor in the elbows). Also shouldn't carry and ride (primary point of impact), but we won't talk about that here.

I concur that cold, new, long storage, and likely lean + throttle all created the perfect storm.
