I wonder what he looked like afterwards. I hope those fingerless gloves helped...

He threw up "the horns"!
Looks like the crash bar is aptly named in this case since it unloaded the front wheel.

This was posted elsewhere but this series has much more detail.

He needs to get over the biker image thing and get a sport bike if he wants to corner. Cruisers are made for cruising, or at least loose all the added weight and accessories. Natex, good point about the crash bar.

He's looking for skin donations now.... Anyone??
Not sure why he jumped off, I don't think that hog could tip all the way over. It's too wide.

Nah... he's checking the pre-load setup

OR

Is he getting a light for his joint off the sparks?

I feel bad for the guy.

I have been to the gap, it would be *really* easy to get sucked into a turn like that and run out of lean.

I have also ridden a bike into a ditch because of testosterone poisening... cameras or other bikes being the trigger. In my case it was another bike, but a camera would have worked just as well.

I'm glad he is OK, and he is hustling that cruiser through the gap quicker then I could have.
