Yes, the one and only time I listened to an ipod I ended up getting my knee down, shortly followed by my arm and head.. Never again!

Nah, I had already looked and seen all the information I needed. I'd love to know what that gerk was before it went all wrong. I couldn't remember there being a bump there and it wasn't me shifting down because you can here me shifting down when in the bush from 4th.

I don't own an I pod or any other mp3 player, the SV's engine gives me all the music I need.

i think on the first corner you wernt committed to the corner got abit destracted by the car etc, on the second one the bike certainly looked like it got abit upset by a bumpin the road of sumthin which unsettled you and you sat the bike up. The third one dont know what the hell that was all about lol. Definately need to practice your cornering though you wont always get away with those..

Ipods on a bike FFS like you say the engine should be all the music you need, personaly i think its dangerous as it takes away one of the senses and is destracting.

just a suggestion but i think you would benefit grately from a novice trackday to get mroe acustomed to cornering on your bike.
