Meh screw everyone trying to leave critical comments as usual on YouTube. I'm glad I watched your video because it's an easy mistake to make that I hadn't thought of. Also, your video goes to show why you invest in GOOD GLOVES like those ones because if you watch, as usual, your hands were the first thing to hit the pavement. If you were wearing squidly gloves your hands would've been toast!
I believe you dude, i got new gloves for around town and the first time i rode with them my throttle control was left in the garage with my old gloves.
I dont just ride wheelies...and I dont do it to be cool. Its for fun, and I actually ran 1:14 at Blackhawk Farms Raceway on my stock 07 gsxr 750. Also 2:33 at Road America. Thats not bad for stock bike.
LOL Mistake was blaming the crash on a pair of gloves.... the rider is the only one to blame. No offense but to become a better rider is to learn from your mistakes and not blame them on your gear. Better luck next time.
@magnumhr1 nope. it was the gloves fault. they held the throttle open. if you watch the video, my hands are actually out of the gloves when i lowside.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't you be able to tell that the throttle was open just by the sound of the bike? If the RPM didn't slowly descend right before you brake, unless you brake right after letting off the throttle, it seems that you should have been able to tell that you were still giving it gas. I'm not trying to criticize you or anything, just curious.
@TheRhymeAsylum - i figure I should have been able to tell that the throttle was still open but I was more focused on slowing myself down via braking and trying the quick open throttle/downshift technique ... I figure I just tunnel visioned myself with that. really was a brain fart on my part, lol
@sinverquenza Yeah I know what you mean. That shit is scary too, I almost high sided at Infineon a couple weeks ago doing the same thing, only once I lost the back tire,it straightened out, and the bike kept doing that like 4 times jerking me around scared the shit out of me. It finally stopped and i pulled over on the side of the track and my friend came up next to me and started laughing his ass off telling me how funny it looked
@febr21 pair of Joe Rocket gloves. Gloves held up fine for one crash so I cant complain. I just should have broken them in better and gotten comfortable with them before getting it on at the track, :D
You're a squid. People like you make it dangerous for others on the track. You were having problems and 2 times in that video you dive up the inside of someone and then crash or run off the track. Trophies are not given out at trackday.
@nickelii - so passing someone on a straight is diving up on the inside?? LOL ... stay in the novice group please. I dont make track days dangerous. Track days are inherently dangerous. KTHNXBYE
@sinverquenza ur little hater up there didnt watch the full video. cuz at 1:04 someone ells did what u did. i dont see him talkin shit bout that guy? mistakes are mistakes thats why accidents are what they are called. u cannot prevent anything from happening. other then that. good riding. have fun riding :).
See you at buttonwillow in 2012. Live to ride again...and continuously improve from past mistakes :)

Remember Throttle rule #1
Once the Throttle is cracked open, it is rolled on evenly,smoothly,and consistantly throughout the remainder of the turn....
