Sorry to hear you went down, and glad you weren't hurt. Did you think your tires were warmed up? You knew what was wrong, maybe you shouldn't have been pushin it

Glad you came out okay. I'm riding in the cold most mornings, and this'll serve as a good warning to stay careful. Thanks for showing this!

Listening to your throttle application and looking at the surface, coupled with the things you mentioned in the first post, I can't believe this hasn't happened before. Glad you aren't hurt.

Glad you are ok, and sounds like the bike didnt' get hurt either so learn the lesson of what went wrong and don't do it again.

Thanks a lot guys and yeah I'm actually good only the lower fairing got scratched and those ebay frame sliders did the job.I never really believed in those sliders as the only cost 30bucks.but anyway yeah I saw the video and yeah I have never been on that road.just glad my first time ever falling happened like this and able to fix it and walk away.thanks guys and the camera was in 960p I think 30fps .and happened el paso Texas.also I knew my tires were not warmed so all in all was just me not thinking and booom here comes the craken .

Yep cold tires can creep up on anyone! Even when you're not pushing it!
