Feel bad for that guy !

New to riding with panniers fitted maybe?? Altho I watched that a few times & thought it was a lady rider; dunno why, stance? Hips? Something anyway. :sour:

Regardless, that's gotta hurt - both the rider AND the bike!! Good thing there was a boat/pontoon/landing for the bike to land on, or it coulda been a wetter landing that ended up being even more expensive! pps:

The rider made the boat... But the bike, not quite.

Really? there is an advertisement for not getting a big ass bike! i like my yamaha even more after seeing that. He looked ok but can you imagine how your heart would stop if that was you. Im sure the bike suffered some severe damage landing straight up and down like that, pretty sure they are not designed to take that kind of weight on the front. Thats assuming it didnt slip into the drink after the video was cut off.

Detachable saddlebag...

Bad driver

Not sure why he waited so long to turn towards the boat. Had he turned a little earlier he would have made it. It think with just a little training he can get him and the bike in the boat with no problem. :banghead:

I think the bike did land in a boat...a smaller boat between the wall and the boat the rider landed in....

That's Y it's good to have the widest part of your machine where you can see it.
