Geez the embarrassment alone must have nearly killed him as he is obviously waving to someone he knew.

Frame 9 and 10 looks like he may be scrapping it might have kicked him upright I am no fan of big tourers like that a sports bike would have went around there no worries.

The unfortunate car is a Corvette and the bike is a Triumph Thunderbird.
All cruisers have clearance issues but need to be ridden appropriately. Watch the road dickhead!

I could well be wrong, but something just doesn't look right about the crash photos........  :-\
And when all other images are so close together why is there a gap around the time of impact?
Interesting how there's a motorcycle skid mark on the road already too.......
Geez, I'm a cynical bastard......  ;D
I might buy a big download, so I can suss it out a bit better.  ;)

He was getting stuck into the corner, The Corvette driver tried to avoid him also, Never mind about embarrassment, in those situations  you are too busy trying to preserve life....

Moral to this story is never give up.
If he had kept trying he would have missed.

Looked very much like he hit the panic button, sat up and fixated on the front of the car, which is exactly where he hit. You do feel for the car driver he did everything to avoid the rider. If it is faked it's a bloody good one  :D

Yep, I looked at it again Mike, Robie Hermans youst to say fight it till the end! That soft cock in the pictures decided to stand it up and hit the brakes. Hope he is OK now!
