Yip…had the same thoughts when I came off my divvy 3 yrs ago…“Ah sh*te, this is gonna hurt…just go with the flow and hope no one drives over me!”. :w00t:
Glad your ok. Given the weather yesterday it was as the others have said it was probably due to oil/diesel on the roads. Do buses turn there as well? If so they are one of the biggest culprit of diesel on the roads.
Yesterday wasn’t as bad as the Wed before last, when it had been dry for ages, then rained just enough to coat the road and stopped. I was spinning the back up like nobody’s business…horrible (when you’re not trying to do it!)
best thing to do if you can afford it get onto a few track days and learn and gain confidence you can throw yr bike around alot more
good thing to get is a bike with a steel frame nice and cheap less prone to breaking up and easy to repair and weld may not look the ****** at the track day but u can make it look good and if ya any good you could whip some flash bikes arses if you drop it it dont matter coz its not yr pride and joy main road bike
