This scenario plays itself out far to often where a rider cannot maintain travel in his lane. We have all been guilty at some time or other. We get into a situation that demands more lean angle than we are mentally capable of delivering. Sadly these situations are sometime fatal.
If a cornering situation demands more lean angle than you can safely deliver, you become road bait!
Since this accident is still under investigation, your assumption that “lean angle” had anything to do with it is careless. The only information provided in the article is that one bike crossed the center line and struck the other head-on. Nowhere is it indicated that either rider was in a turn. Countless other factors could have been involved.
2 lives were lost and the most sensitive remark you can provide is that their (assumed) lack of skill turned them into “road bait”? A heartwarming sentiment to express to the family & friends of both riders during their time of loss. Maybe you should pass on your gems of wisdom by delivering their eulogies as well - that will surely speed up the grieving process.
As the self-proclaimed master of the track day, this situation demands that you keep your unfounded opinions in the appropriate section of the forum and leave the real world forensics to the experts.
Rest in peace riders… may your families and friends recover from this tragic loss.
Oh, one more thing… if you think anyone is buying your Rossi thread as an April Fool’s joke, your head is further entrenched in a very dark place than originally speculated.
I think what many get sick of here in the arm-chair quarterbacking of every single accident you weren't even around to witness. Conjecture is a dangerous thing, especially if assumptions turn out to be wrong...
I suppose asking for respect when riders are lost first and foremost, before facts are known, completely escapes a brilliant mind like yours. You're so busy schooling everyone on cornering and buying tires while telling them they're complete idiots for anything they decided on their own, because goodness knows adults can't think for themselves. My gosh, how did we all even get MC endorsements without taking Tuf's tough-love approach to being just like Tuf? Hell, I'm shocked I can put my own shoes on...
