Some cheap frame sliders and a jacket that isn't desgined for mountain walking would of made this alot less painful/expensive. Chicks dig scars though, just tell them you were racing.
Damn. I didn't think you could still rip your skin like he did even while wearing a textile jacket (assuming its textile and/or armored.) Guess thats why they have leather.
Totally target fixation. Perhaps the squid that crashed will realize that a sweatshirt makes for shitty gear. See everyone else wearing real gear? Take a hint bud. Ride safe
Teach him how to look through the corners instead of target fixating on the walls and gravel in front of him. He was way over his head for his skill level .
Gravel had ZERO to do with that crash!! He's lucky he didn't crash in the corner before where he nearly did the same thing. Rider needs to either slow way down or work on his cornering skills. Hopefully both if he wants to grow to be an old rider.
Was that rider new? It looks like he panicked and target fixated on the wall and then went down. Gravel wasn't the issue here, it was a little lack of skill.
glad to see hes alright, im still waiting on my setlement for my bike crash ill be on the road soon.this time with a go pr camra just in case someone decides to pull a turn n front of me again
Hope he learns a valuable lesson from this and gets some decent gear and a higher level of skill. That run wide was easily prevented with a bike as capable as a GSXR600. Even at the most basic and mellow levels of group rides there will always be one. Either a hooligan, or a slow guy, or the one that is just there to be with the group, but it seemingly always results in this sort of video eventually. :(

A real jacket would have stopped that road rash completely. He got lucky and he'll be alright.

To me, it looks like he wasn't very committed to the turn. How much experience does he have?

creo que el problema no es la grava, el piloto toma la curva muy mal "de a dentro a fuera" se traza al reves "de afuera al vertice de la curva"

I saw that gravel straight away. Nice of you to pick his bike up and undo the lever.

Glad to see he got up so fast. Do you know what caused the accident was it gravel? How much damage did the bike take?

@EdiGoHD i don't believe gravel had any part in the accident. gravel doesn't cause riders to go down as often as people think.
