| I was over Fox's diner about a month ago when there were a fair few bikes about and I made the comment to a couple of my mates that the accident figures will soon be going up.
Looking at the New bikes not only are they faster they are also lighter and in the hands of some riders this is certainly a letha combination, especially as the road surfaces continue to deteriorate causing more and more cases of bump steer that some riders either don't seem to anticipate or haven't experienced before on their previous slower and heavier bikes.
I always found it interesting listeng to riders comments at the TT after they had been out on their production bikes which were usually the latest bikes on the market.
Even my R6 was discribed by Adrian as behaving like a Motocrosser down Sulby Straight on his way to a 114mph lap and that was with sorted suspension front and rear |
