Last sunday I was running some laps at the track and at the end of the day my 01 r1 jumped out from under me, in an "off-camber tight turn." I very sure the left engine case caught a bump in the turn and knocked both wheels off the ground. bike slip off the track and fliped when it hit the dirt. I scraped all fairings and cracked headlight and headlight fairing. Frame sliders kept damage minimal. I ripped up a full suit pair of gloves and 1 boot. HAS ANYONE ELSE LOST IT WHEN AN ENGINE CASE HIT????
Thanks,

Sorry to hear about your wreck.....I've lost it on a right hander when my exhaust hit on an off camber turn....the guy behind me said it lifted my back wheel and that was the end of that......ended up catching and then I highsided it....:(
