Ouch, that didn't seem to give much warning. Do you know what happened or did it just drop?

as above. bike should have been moved asap that was a dodgy spot!

Yeah what looked like happened was when i came back in from the first session the bike was madddd hot..and there was a tiny weep of oil coming from the clutch cover(think its that)..i was too fired up not to go back out there(stupid)..when we got the bike back to paddock we looked and right on the edge of the tyre there was nice slippery oil :oops:
my own fault!!!
ah well lessons will be learnt!!

Well I suppose if you're going to bin it then a trackday is the best time.

Much damage?

Looks like you took it in your stride!


I like your little skip to the bike after getting up :lol:

Glad you were okay, it certainly made interesting viewing (from a technical standpoint) - I kept playing it back in super slow motion to try and figure why it broke away so quickly, now I know ;).
