> That video reminds me of when I took a new-ish rider out on my favorite stretch of road. He decided he didn’t want his brand new white 2010 CBR1000RR anymore and proceded to ride off the road mid-corner. Luckily he wasn’t hurt and had insurance, but he quickly gave up riding.

If every new rider are forced to complete 1 trackday before they are granted a street license, new rider crash rate will probably decrease by 90%.

New riders who mind being seen on a ex250/ex500 are usually the ones who don’t mind crashing a brand new 1k bike. If that is not troll logic, I don’t know what is…:lol
