Putfile - scratching crash

Sorry if this is a repost. First time I saw it anyway... It was only a matter of time riding that hard on public streets. Looks like brakes in the corner shift the bikes weight forward causing the backend to lose traction and kick out.

Sounded like he chopped the throttle. Bad move in a full lean.

look like nice roads...a little narrow for going that fast in my oppinion, but they probably knew them.
