in MSF you learn that if you ever start to slide out, just let the bike go down. If you let off your brakes, your bike will violently pop back up, and throw you over the side.
Get rid of the music so we can hear the comments. He screwed up by overtaking coming into the corner which put him off line. He was trying to recover and didn't make it.
damn that sucks. he got chucked up in the air pretty high. getting high sided sucks...I dislocated my shoulder when I got high sided.he just lost traction in the corner maybe giving it a little to much throttle.
Hard to tell if the high side was caused by the rear brake. What is for sure is that there's too much speed, lean, and an off-cambered road. Who knows about the tire and surface conditions? When the rear tire starts to slide in the vid you can see that he's leaned nearly all the way over. At that point there's very little traction left and any factor (road, tires, speed, brake) in excess can punch the envelope. then the tire reconnects and he's airborn.
dude..he hit the brake. you can see the brake light come on. plus, he wasn't even exiting the turn when this happened. if there's a high side during the exit, it means he probably got on the gas too much.
wasnt the rear brake dudes - if you look at the fuckin video and think you will see his front light is on and usually wen the fronts on the back is too yeah? just think dumbasses
ps. you can technically highside anywhere on the corner
MSF Cont'd: "You can prevent a "high-side" by intentionally keeping the rear brake locked and skidding to a stop. If a fall occurs, it will be to the "low side," and you will have only a short distance to fall."
MSF: "The biggest danger in any rear-tire skid is releasing the rear brake when the rear wheel is out of alignment with the front wheel. If the rear wheel stops skidding and resumes rolling when it is out of line with the direction of travel, the motorcycle will immediately straighten and could result in loss of control. You could be thrown off in what is commonly called a "high-side" fall, and it is very likely to produce serious injury*. (*see above)
This is the reason I no longer ride Palomar on the weekends. I've actually had an out of control squid on a 1000cc something pass me on my inside over a double yellow as I took a right hand corner going up as he was coming down. It's no wonder the locals fucking hate us riders and put diesel down in the corners because this shit happens multiple times every Saturday and Sunday.
that was a nasty highside mate bonus points for hanging on, but yeah track days are a better option for knee down antics (armco is not nice stuff but you missed it thank god) sorry bout your wrist. but hey motorcycle crashes are like aircraft landings, any one you walk away from is a good one, thumbs up to you dude :)
that was wicked. i giv u credit for holding on to it for that long that was a huge drift. and wat a mean lean angle. nice bike 2 shame about the scratches tho
Seemed like it was sideways for an eternity! Well dont on not shutting off as soon as it stepped out, ignore the stupid "you should have..." comments, what do they know? when the back end breaks out at that speed, its pure luck catching it in time (unless ur name is v. rossi, and even he loses it sometimes) hope ur wrist is ok dude
Tail lights turning ON doesnt necessarily indicate that he was braking. you can slightly pull on the front brake lever or slightly step on the rear brake pedal and the lights will turn ON but the Brakes Wont necessarily ENGAGE.
He greedy with his throttle. Live and Learn baby!
Keep it at the Track! I only go there to take photos now.
so i just started riding in nov. ive been to palomar twice now, i dont understand the reason the back came around like that, too much speed? any brake input?
Anyone else notice that was the best he could do with the bars flying back and forth like they were? You do a slide with that kind of head shake and only end up with a f'ed up wrist, thats very lucky considering head on traffic, or the guardrail and beyond. I applaud the riders ability to just keep trying to ride it out rather than shut the throttle when it starts to go and end up in the railing on the outside of the corner. Depends on how far gone it is at the point it wants to come back to ya.

Accelerate in the vertex and finish him by acceleration, not by overspeed. Never overtake before a curve by means of overspeed. Not so difficult...
The highsider was actually not caused by leaning too much but by exceeding the tire grip due to excessive centrifugal force.

no he "screwed up" when he gave it too much throttle round the corner - you can hear him accelerating cos the revs get higher
