Just had a close call with diesel!
 

So after getting my bike booked in for its full service I started heading back home, got to the roundabout at the end of the business park. Went to pull away, got maybe 4 feet when the rear wheel just started spinning making the rear end fish tail. First time I have ever been in this situation but I just kept the throttle open and hoped it would find grip which luckily it did.

Not something I want to experience again any time soon. Anyone else had similar experiences with diesel lately?
