yeah nasty is right...  Don't understand how the bars started shaking that violently all of a sudden...   I'm thinking it has to be some sort of mechanical failure in the front fork or head assembly...  at least I hope.. .to think I could just be rocking and rolling one minute, then have my bike toss me into the woods for no reason is scary.

I think the tank slapper began on his exit out of T9....off camera....

Man, that was nasty.... 

You see how far he slid down the track after the dust cloud?

Victormike posted this up...not sure if it was on .com or facebook

picked up the front coming out of 9?...he's way on the inside of the line and carrying a ton of speed compared to the camera bike

 03 R1, didn't have a steering dampner

not to mention he was trying to look back at the camera bike while gassing forward....in beginner group thats just ingredients to a accident. Thats a nasty place to crash too...that bridge is just a solid concrete wall, wonder if he hit it...

Yeah it was at summit coming out of 9.  Video was taken from a friend of mines bike.  I was watching it slow mo and guy was already in tankslapper when he came into video, and in slow mo it looks like he almost saves it at one point.  It happened at 100 plus I can't believe how far down the track he slid. 

I guess turn 9 is a 100 mph turn isn't it (I just watched one of my videos from this weekend)...wow, thats kinda scary.  lol.
