thanks for the feedback...it helps my recently damaged ego!

yeah, the fact that I wasn't seriously hurt means a little more now than it did right after the crash. Right after the crash I was dealing with anger management (that and wondering if I had a concussion) as I looked at my thrashed bike but looking back I definitely could have been injured more than I was.

I don't think I will ever know for sure if I took weight of the rear by draggin the pipe or was just too generious with the throttle, but in the end I think it does come down to hanging off the bike more. If I had more weight to the inside of the corner I wouldn't need to be leaned over as much as I was. Hopefully lesson learned...and your right Randy...no giving up!
