OMG now feel really stupid.
Was pulling out of a side road/driveway and lost the back end.
Cold, wet tyres + wet leaves + main road on rush hour + too much choke whilst too little clutch = one lost back end and one embarrased SVer.
Yes I feel real stupid, and two pints about an hour and a half earlier make it all the more stupid!!
Anyway, lesson learnt and only a FEW scratches to myself and the bike luckily! (though my knee is really hurting - used it to stop the bike hitting the floor!)
Even managed to hit the kill switch on the way down - what's that all about?
