Notice his body position- spine in a straight line, parallel to the bike, and head leading the turn. Almost every crash video has a guy hanging his ass off the side trying to drag a knee, going WAY slower than this guy, but bad body positioning causing the bike to lean more than it needs to... add bad throttle control, hard braking in a corner, and target fixation and *bang* rider down. But they'll be a Starbux saying "oh yeah, I was dragging knee but I hit a patch of sand..."

@340PD Sounds intense, I wish the best of luck and safe travels to all who ride here and everywhere!

@crzyruskie86 You can "read" a turn going in. Aside from road surface: ascending or descending, peripheral vision and even its own past history and reputation can play with your head. Some riders will "play" it in slow motion and some will concentrate the hell out of it. Even with years on the bike you can just go in bad. Some (a few) can snap out of it.

Nice to see someone that knows how to ride, and has an affordable bike. This shows that you don't need a new/newer bike. This ninja he is riding can be found for under $3500, and its sexy.
Notice the ultimate skill of this rider. At 1:00 the rider is looking in the direction of his impending crash! At 1:01 the rider snaps his head in the direction of where he need to go to save himself. You gotta replay this to see the beauty of it.
