Brian P, you explain about the zx-10 that went down as he went over the hill and how he wasn't straight and could have saved it. Not true. That video was filmed by me, that crashed happened before my eyes. That road had spots of sand and as you can see, the sand was what he landed in when he went down. However, the bike went over the hill, and landed ON some sand in the road and the bike lost grip, turned sideways and lowsided. Despite the fact that it was a little bit of rider error being so far to the right on that corner and not slowing for the hill to see what lies ahead of it, there wasn't much else he could have done to save it. Maybe with some dirtbike experience then maybe, but unlikely. He did good, the bike didn't touch pavement, only slid in sand. His helmet saved him, I didn't get a good look at it but apparently he basically needs a new one. Pretty sure that may have hit pavement and then he was in the sand. Hope this sheds some light on this accident. Not all accidents are ENTIRELY the riders fault. Yes they could be prevented by rider by all the little things, but sometimes they just can't be saved.
