Whoops, pretty high pucker factor there.

Mind you the track looks none too brilliant, my local roads are better surfaced than that.

Guess the track doesn't look all that bad on the vid, but I know its not when riding it. It really is pretty smooth.

Turn 1 is roughed up pretty good, you just have to make sure you hit the apex. Other than that it's pretty smooth.

I don't have ten minutes to spend on watching. Where in the video is the save?

I did the same thing in the exact same spot during the track day at the 25th homecoming.. while riding a demo XB12CG.

Pucker factor for sure, but there's plenty of space to run wide with, and pretty easy to just go along for the ride while the bike loses some speed.
That's what track days are for, right? - learning your limits.

PP2ct's I'm not blaming the tires...I was just a little aggressive on the throttle while leaned.
