Ummmm, check your side stand before setting off!

It's not me riding the camera bike BTW, I found the vid on another forum (MILFs & GILFS in the Southern Region looking for meaningless liaisons with nerds dot com)

What a tit. Sorry dude. I hope he was so embarrassed that he bought you a new bike. Hopefully you were able to still ride and enjoy the day.

Don't worry that wasn't Schnauzer's bike. Well not unless his SDR has grown 2 more cylinders or he was feeling brave enough to take his Z1000 project bike to Cadwell. I'm thinking its a grab off youtube. Still what a tit though

I thought a SD was the camera bike because of the loud "clunk" as it was shifted into gear!

Sorry but :

5mph and:

- one can't stop, must have an awful cold braking power in those pads certainlly ehehe
- the other has the steering locked for sure or a bad case of simpathy for the other lol

And just because he turned off the switch, but didn't took the time to remove the side stand....

Better luck next time.

I only did it because the eliminator is £18 and a new switch is £38. i did the math and went for the cheap option. However if I ever ride off with it down and bin it it will be the worst £20 saved ever!

I don't think that the bloke behind should complain too much. If he didn't have target fixation he could have ridden round. Getting taken out from behind is something to get pissed off about, but running over someone infront of you is just the risk you take.

What I love about that one is the way the camera is left pointing at the marshal's post filming your own red flag as the rest of the group files past ready to give you a kicking when you get back to the paddock. Nice find!
