With the heavy footed rear brake maneuver, I would venture to guess he's never heard of the MSF nor taken one of their courses.

That maneuver is pretty fun on a BMX bike. On a 450 lb. sportbike....um, notsomuch.

OMG! Classic High Side!
Foots completely mashing the rear brake just before getting ejected.
Not sure if he started off with just too much throttle on exit or grabbed the rear brakes going in trying to slow down..
Either way it happens in an instant and it's almost inevitable that your going to get slammed on your face.
Coulda,shoulda,woulda!All you arm chair quarterbacks saying what he should have done probably never high-sided in your life. You cant practice that maneuver and reading that in a text book does not equate in a 10th of a second.

oh man, no amount of money spent on an italian kangaroo suit with airbags is going to smooth over this mistake....us 600 guys don't have this problem as long as we keep the revs low hehehe anyway hope he's ok and the bike is salvageable.
