So I just had an accident this morning because of my own stupidity..
Trying to 'layan corner' at an unfamiliar road, ended up overshooting and slide into the grass sweat.gif

Looks like that corner has claimed a plenty of victim..

Thank God that all I had was minor bruises and bike was working fine even with small dent here and there.
A lot of passerby was offering help too.. I'm really moved by that gesture tbh
Still manage to ride it back home in 1 hour.

Reminder to all (and myself) to never EVER forget your gear.. and ride safely. I would've ended up losing some of my skins if not for these protection.
Some scratches and dent on the bike and helmet

Minor injury on my right hand and right hip

Jacket and pants aftermath. Surprisingly gloves are fine
You know that I said Benkia padding feels insufficient? I take that back it did help me  laugh.gif

the rear shock isnt that bad, good enough for my weight.

this one 100% on me for riding like an idiot.

After some cleanup, doesn't look like it have been through accident..

yeah, looks much better


I dunno how you ride, just a speculative comment, maybe can pay attention to body position a little bit, just the buttcheek a little off the saddle may help a bit

Damn man rarely do bikes end up in that good of a condition after crashing off the road into grass. Did you try to lean more when you realized you had underestimated the corner? For cornering do you lean in or do you corner with body upright type? Glad you're ok but damn your new helmet sakit hati sial.

Change sliders and bar end weights then the bike is as good as new laugh.gif

Wonder if it's an MT09 would it had cracked the frame in this type of accident hmm.gif

Yes I was leaning in initially, mid corner I realize not gonna make it then trying to compensate by leaning further.. ended up lowsiding.

Leaning to the right has been my weak side also

Could've ended up worse where I'm crashing into the barrier and ended up getting launched into ladang kelapa sawit laugh.gif

The Shima design looks good, but looks loose (or you’re damn skinny). Make sure the fit is snug else protection won’t be there

Nothing wrong with the tires, from his own description he ran out of lean angle and low sided the corner, not because the tire lost grip.

Not likely to fail so easily lah. Got a few fellas lowside or target fixate into ditches, no issue rim, tank all mangled. That said, one middle eastern fella, dont know what brand sider, looked quite long, whole thing just twist, that one frame patah, so not to say its wont ever happen. Lowside and slide i think will be fine... if it flips, then i have no confidence it will stay in one piece lel.
most of the images you see circulating, for some reason the engine mounting bolt is missing, even the tracer that snapped on genting recently. it didnt sheer cause u can see the engine block side, langsung no bolt in there

back to topic, helmets with rash like that, not safe to use again kan? best to change?

can I see the front tyre wear and rear tyre wear?
I'm looking for 'chicken strip' to see how much lean angle you're using

no, it's not for bragging rights

the GT2 I asked before is made in Europe
the older GT is made in China, same as many previous Rosso models
