I would get on it exiting turns and go through the turn backing it in, however traction would be sketchy and the rear end would go past the straight position on the way back going into essentially a snap overstate situation. With the back end being very sideways if I caught traction at that moment me and bike would be done for. Ever since those days I swore by Pilot powers and traction in rain was never a problem again.

I’m going to be at the shop tomorrow doing a CF sunroof panel for Eric, 2pm I have to swing the Evo down for an inspection appontment but it’s only a few mins away from the shop, then somewhere around 2:30pm cossey is shooting up with the M3 and dropping it. I have to bring him back to his house thereafter so he can run some errands of his own, but will be back at the shop thereafter.
