    target fixation. Blind corner. repaved surface. sucks!

    seamed like the bike carrying the camera gassed it before visibility was clear and followed the other bike.

    Looks like some dust and/or gravel on the road as well.

    Repost! Report to the BDF without delay!!

    Even watching it again I still don't get happened and why the camera guy crashed. He obviously saw the other bikes go down and had time to slow...seems like he just locked up the front or something.

I always get the feeling that to ride a Tuono you have to be a real man, prepared to fight it every step of the way, where as on the Triumph you can have an off day and not be left feeling inadequate"

    The camera dude being the intrepid reporter journalist that he is, wanted a closeup of the action to get to the raw truth of the matter and became part of the story.... you know, the old sad tales of the reporters becoming casualties of their own stories. An age-old tragedy repeats itself.

    Where the @$!@!~# was the corner worker?

    There was something on the road surface. He was loosing it before you could see the others. Looks like someone put some gravel or something to soak up some oil or whatever. Maybe too much or not enougth

    Sorry for the repost guys, 1st time for me. Looked like the lead two got way in over their heads and wiped due to gravel or they thought the turn had opened up. #2 was definitely locked on 1 without any cushion. 3 actually made the turn and the camera man fixated on the crash scene, cut him some slack on the lane bit, he's on a TLR jk.

    I think the second biker paniced and grabed the front lever as hard as he could
