do the public roads really provide safe traction for fast cornering? i like cornering fast better than anything else i do on my bike probably.

clover leafs and etc. i just don't know how trustworthy they are. is that little strip of oil/whatever in the middle of the road enough to throw a person off into the ditch? please don't limit answers to the only my questions. feel free to unload a bunch of different scenarios on me that could be considered safe and not.

ride them a few times before you do it at a slow speed to find where to go and where not to go. and if you want to corner fast the only real safe way is on a track. and thats not always safe.

Jason, waking up in the morning can be unsafe.. Walking down the street can be unsafe..

People go pretty quick down the saturn road, and the clovers from what i hear. I wouldnt do it down the 'kawi' curves personally.

I just know of like 7 or 8 people who have died down Fletcher. At least one guy on a bike. He went straight into a tree going about 130-140. I grew up out there in the highlands, and have personally went sideways in a car going 110 down fletcher as well.. Didnt wreck it luckily, just ended up in someones backyard, who thankfully, hadnt put up a fence, lol.

take you long to think of that? pretty sure everyone knows it could end in a second but don't think much like the fact that it could be them ending it for themselves. ALL i aimed at was be careful and if you want to do it right go to a track. Not a philosophical meaning to death.

on my R6 i use to hit fletcher at between 115 and 130 all the time. looking back, i was a fuckin retard and i would much rather spend my time doing wheelies at 15 mph than doing corners at 125. its more fun to me and less life threatening. but it was a fuckin rush to do that its just not the smartest thing in the world. if i ever want to do that shit again i will have a track bike and go do track days or some shit.

and oh yea you can drag knee in jeans. lol. on the offramp that goes onto cornhusker off of 180 (the really tight one that goes uphill a little) my jeans hit the ground once, glad my actual knee didnt hit tho that mighta hurt.
