What's wrong with that? He's just checking his rear brake lever!
I have a friend that also tried to check his rear brake lever whilst on the go.....didnt work out so well for him
That landing got to hurt..
You sure he's not doing an exhaust header check - you know, to ensure noise emission compliance.

I'll assume you've all seen this:


Guy broke his wrist I believe - not too bad considering ... I think that his method of undercarriage inspection is a bit extreme - no?
Never seen that before and have to wonder what the fook was he thinking???
I like the way the concerned cameraman stopped to make sure the other guy was OK........not!

When you look at that video you have to ask yourself what the hell just happened? Was he attempting a high speed stoppy
Or something ? Or did he just bang into someone? Maybe he has chewing gum on his front tyre? To much grip.
probs just 2 heavy on the brakes? or didnt see the corner till the last minute?

I think he just confused the words brake and break

As in "this is the breaking point!!!!"

I just think he got his breaking point seriously wrong (distracted…looking at speedo or such like) and panicked …and hit the front break big time…….. from that moment zero braking in fact without road friction he would have accelerated………….


Looks like it was filmed on a wide angle HD (GoPro hero is my best guess) this visually reduces the effect of dive (when setting them up you just point in the general direction as the view angle is so wide) where a narrow angle camera that we are use to seeing ....exaggerates the effect of diving
