    Thanks for sharing bud, I ride a 2006 blade in novice and was advised to keep the revs high to keep out of the torque band. Blades are very lazy in the gearing you could do the whole track in 3rd 😆 I’ll look out for the duct tape 💪🏼👍

      Yep, using the revs actually helps not crash which feels wrong but when you do it so much better

    Nicely done - surprised that did not turned into a big nasty highside.

      It was an odd one. I was running road tyres so I think that saved me from it biting again

    Oohh so so unlucky mate. Sorry to see this , there’s a nasty bump there too which can disturb the bike sometimes on lean

      That's was a factor as I did hit that bump, but it had more to do with throttle and lean. This was only the 2nd time on the 1000 moving from the 750 and there was definite whisky throttle goi

      I had enough time to think about it before it dumped me on deck. But I'm not good enough to have actually done anything 😆

    Second gear corner then short shift to 3rd to stabilise bike and off you go . This is what I do anyway but I'm no expert 😂... good luck in the future .

      similar, i highsided 636 at second apex too much gas lean road tyres at wrong pressure

    It’s definitely adding gas whilst increasing lean angle your rear wheel slide

      100% I've been back since 5 seconds faster no moments.
      Took me a while to change style from a 750 - 1000

      Guilty, it wasn't fully fixed from a Mallory off. Same crash I've got some work to do on my throttle application

      @@LowsideLew I think your revs are too low mate, you can give it way too much gas and not realise cos it doesn’t have the power available down at 4/5k but once they start to pick up it does and suddenly you’ve got loads more power without changing the throttle position
