dude you wud have easily made that turn !! lean her well over it wont slide aslong as you have a half decent set of tyres. worst comes to worst you have a whole lane to recover if you go wide. noob mistake locking the rear, good engine breaking on da sv's just leave off the trottle and keep your line :) ride safe
@1994arai Yeah ive gotten that from alot of people. I went back on the road again and it was a 20mph turn suggested speed limit....i was going 80 :P....way to fast for the road. I have learned from my mistake, and i know about locking the rear. Thanks for the comment though :)
@wupsey you should see some of the roads here in ireland lol either way man any crash you walk away from is a good one, had you been a bit faster and hit one of those trees could be a differnt story
@Gokumitsu9000 Yeah I used too much rear brake which is why it started to slide, I was able to recover from that but then I fixated on the ditch and went right to it. The turn does turn tighter off camera and I would have not been able to make that part of the turn and would have gone into a deeper ditch that would have been a bitch to get out of....does that help?
lol

You sir, are a champion. Not many people are hardcore enough to use the rear brake on a turn like that.

@1994arai Its the wide angle on the GoPro camera that makes it look like less of a turn than it really is...the video doesn't do it justice.
