  • The Rocket is an awesome beast, however until you get used to it, she is a handful. The acceleration brings the speed up quickly, then physics require a LOT of road to get her round the bend - and because she doesn't go down far (excuse the pun), you cannot play quite as many games as a sports bike.  Yep, he panicked, locked her up, because he was behind the bike, following her, not leading her!

  • @ghimmpxviii And you obviously don't know much about motorcycles. If you go in too hot on a bike, your best bet is to release the brake, look through the turn, and just stick with it.

  • @nilbud Oh i'm sorry. I forgot that turning a bike and braking hard is the easiest thing in the world. Or do you mean that "drifting" like the original guy said is the most effective?

  • @heartlesspinto Yeah that's the dumbest bag of nonsense in history, congratulations.

  • My rocket 111 is a great bike,but,its not a cornering bike at all.Too fast and braking on a bend is disaster.The suzuki m1800r i also have,is a bit better on the bends.Now,the real cornering bike in my collection is the Triumph T120r.Conclusion is....700 lb bikes will not corner as well as a 350 lb bike no matter the age or tyres,or suspension

  • your bike sounds like crap!

  • The bike wasn't made for that kind of speed in the curves. If you're going to ride like that get a crotch rocket.

  • what a shame, hope the rider was ok

  • @LeviathanRan owners fault. going to fast and hit rear brake too hard. You could see that when he started passing people on the outside of a curve that he was pushing it..

    You have to know your limitations..

  • @ausglocker you obviously never went into a turn hot... he would have been better off drifting the turn lol
