Count your blessings. Glad you are OK. The bike looks like it's actually in OK shape (considering)?

Spectacular crash. Nobody had video from behind you?

How can I make sure this mechanical failure never happens to me?

Looks like the bike got away with a lot less than it could have. Looks more like low side carnage than high side carnage. At that speed, if that thing started to tumble, we would be looking at a cube. Really glad your ok man. Jeez.
 
Just got my gear back

I wasn't wearing a back protector.. someone was definitely looking out for me that day.

Alpinestars GP tech Gloves and Sidi boots weren't in bad shape

Again thanks for all the kind words.

At those speeds You better get leathers with air bag protection. You have to thank God That you are talking about your accident and no broken bones.

Yike, that was on the frontstraight of Fontana. Your front was shaking from the begining. Glad you're ok and honestly, damage wasn't that bad on the bike given it just slid.

Thanks I'm doing great for being ejected at speed


It was only shaking only in the beginning over the bumpy transition from the infield.
 
Christ, that's pretty damn hardcore. Glad you're ok mate. I low sided my brand new 1199R first time out, and then highsided second time out and after launching me off it autopiloted into the pit wall! I had to replace the whole front end, that was an expensive month.

Thanks!

The worst part of the crash was I couldn't see what happened to the bike for 2 hours. It's not too bad. Definitely repairable.
 
Ok I have MAC parts, DP rearsets, Brembo parts (levers, MCs etc) DP throttles, race switches, a lot of motor parts, swingarms etc. Let me know what you need. If I have it, its yours No charge man.
