Seems a bit obvious to me.....



It looked/sounded like he kept chopping the throttle a lot in the turns. i noticed a few times he was getting super close to the edge with no kind of rumble strips and that last turn before he crashed looked mighty dusty.
also, now that I listened to it louder. did he hit rev limiter? that shit sounded like it was bouncing. OR he just lost the rear that early.
He crashed...usually the wrong thing to do...
Sounded to me like he hit the limiter, then subsequently let off the gas.

But, I will have to agree with Freddy. Rofl2
My guess is the rev limiter broke the tire loose. My MV would hit the limiter and that was just like hitting the killswitch. It did not have any soft limiter on it at all. I would put my money on that. I know lots of honda guys nix the soft limiter with the power commander on race bikes. I didnt hear a throttle chop until he was off the bike.

that and im pretty sure the beemer in race mode has no soft limiter.

Looks and sounds like he was in to low of a gear to high in the rpms and fucked up by giving it gas and lost the ass end. In turns throtal control is key be easy be gental that bike has a lot of power especially in the range he was in rpm wise.

But I never knew BMW's would fly that well lol. Sucks but at least he got back up
The problem was he turned off the auto-pilot that them there BMW's have.
Ridden the S1000 he was doing 120+ in second gear when he lost it. IJS LOL
