I had a bit of an 'incident' today, that was a nice
back to reality. Damp road + Too much throttle = Sideways. Luckily it was a no harm, no foul incident; but a nice reality check none the less.
I was going under the speed limit barely feathering the throttle around 3k RPM's and my back end came loose a bit through a very sharp turn. Good thing I was able to recover as theres no room for mistakes on that road

I'd have tons of fun 
When it didn't fall for a few weeks we'd hit parking lots and move the piles of snow around and mess around.
I think in here they use fast food trays to do the same thing.
Tons of fun

I wonder if all the people who are spinning out are running sticky summer tires on the back (which aren't meant for rain)....Star Spec's anyone?
Mine feels surprisingly well planted on Sumitomo HTRZ3's unless I'm deliberately jerky.
Remember, smoother is always better!
