Hello... was out riding this weekend on my FMX (I know its not a real supermoto but i wanted something that's good round town) and i really pushed it into this corner... there was still plenty of tire left but i caught the foot-peg, before i could put my leg out the bike slid out from underneath me and was spinning down the road haha... no serious harm done except my pride lol

Just wondering is it me or the bike coz surely the bike must have still had grip no?? but i wasn't rough or anything i though i was quite smooth lol!!

Anyway just thought id pick yous guys brains,

Cheers Very Happy
