    Wednesday morning a biker on an '02 CBR600F was trying to corner (In town) at about 20 next to me... He was on the inside (2 lanes)... And down he went. In about a million pieces... And sparks everywhere... Impressive for such a low speed slide.

    Luckily my ABS decided to work this time and I managed to miss him...

    I thought the fact that my ABS didn't just say fsck it and let me ride over him was pretty newsworthy... Of course ordinary brakes would have managed it too... It was dry, no frost, ice, oil, diesel (For once).

    I'm positive it was just random chance... hey, it's got to work sometime right? Best flog it now before it realises what it's done and reverts to type.
