RE: Sportbike Ride Followed by Sport Touring Honda
They were going slow on purpose to video Tyson and they were new to that mountain road. They always do one slow run on a new road to check things out before riding it fast so there are no surprises.
I was wondering if you guys routinely run the roads before hand. A rock slide could make for a bad day. I only came off a bile once and it wasn't anywhere near the speed you run at. Its good you wear the proper attire.
Another thing we look for is sand in the corners. Sand will cause your rear tire to lose traction, slide out and you will go down in a low side crash. Many riders will stop and sweep the sand off the road with their feet.
