Whats up with this turn???

YEa.. that was sucks ville.

Slow and modulating the throttle. Of course no matter what he did, probably would have hit the ground going over wet paint.

Here they don't put any sand in the crosswalk paint. When you go around the turns it just dances under your ass.

 

I'm sticking with my first diagnosis. To me, and its just a video, but engine sounds seem to agree. They're decelerating into corners. And its hard to tell but it almost seems like contact comes before they hit the ground in a couple.

Put the weight on the front wheel and see how fast you low side.

 

LOL it's funny about this thread. A few days ago I posted a thread in a sportbike forum about the guy who tapes all those wrecks. Here is what I was talking about (copy and pasted)................



I was watching vids on youtube and discovered something kinda odd and potentially disturbing.

Youtube user 'rnmickeymouse' has dozens of vids of sportbikes and other bikes lowsiding and highsiding on one particular corner on Mulholand HWY in southern CA. Some of the wrecks could be contributed to rider error, too much lean, bad body positiong, going in too hot, grabbing too much brake etc. Some clips many bikes sound like they gas it at the apex and loose it but I came to the conclusion that their revs went up due to sudden and unexplained loss of traction. There is no way there can be that many people that keep crashing at that same corner.

I had posted on one of the vids that I wonder if somebody was spraying silicon spray on the corner, then filming the carnage. Found out today rnmickeymouse blocked me from posting anymore coments to his videos, which leads me to believe I was onto something. He afraid of getting the truth out?

In one of his vids he filmed I think it was a Toyota Celica that lost control and took out 2 parked bikes. Those bikes were parked behind a van that had 'rockstorephotos.com' banner on the side of a truck. WTF??? I know what and where the rockstore is but are these guys in on it together or something trying to make a buck?

I would love to see somebody set up some night vision capable cameras, leave them up for several weeks and see if somebody is spraying that corner down in the dark AM hours, then later in the day filming what happens. It's just too damn much of a coincedence IMO.

Some people may think I'm high lol but I'm not the only one who thinks something is fishy on that corner and how that film crew is always there when the wrecks happen.

 

2nd vid.
You don't wanna be on that centerline during cornering.

 

Guy on the scooter in the shorts and Crocs is the best!! Natural selection at it's finest.

 

actually, may be on to something.

According to popular rumor the residents of tantalus drive here on oahu will pour dish soap on the road because people use their road as entertainment.. and when those total waste of flesh douche bags "koa puna" ride up there with their stupid waste of metal harleys, i bet its deafening. I'd probably crack and do it.

I bet there's others that are just sick enough to do it for fun.
