Do you think that tire defect caused the crash?

Old rubber is never good on the track, but in my worthless opinion, in this instance, no.

I distinctly remember watching the front end push.  I could have almost reached out at touched Tommy in that corner -- all three of us were riding wheel-to-wheel -- so I had a good perspective of the crash.  I suspect the rear tire was reasonable, and was split in the rear wheel impact.  The front was holding air and looked OK as we trailered the bike.

Yeah, I'm not sure it was a defect.  The bike flipped and landed on the rear tire.

We are all due a repeat AR trip. That fall '08 trip was too damn long ago. [bang] This next time no tickets, OK? [laugh]

 [evil] Yeah T, get one of those new Multistrada 1200S with the Black/Grey/Black color schemes so that I can buy it from you at the absurdly low price you always sell your bikes for after owning them for about six weeks after you get the title - maybe after an easy trip to say... Arkansas!  ;)

Oh yeah & I'm glad you are ok after your track incident !  [moto]

Some scientists claim that hydrogen, because it is so plentiful, is the basic building block of the universe. I dispute that. I say there is more stupidity than hydrogen, and that is the basic building block of the universe.

I think the worst one was when I bought a brand new 2006 SC 1000 from AMS, dropped $2500 on the 600 mile service and the 2-1 Termi full system and then turned around and sold it Ryan (the guy that looks like Side Show Bob and moved to the NW) for $8000.  All because I wanted a 1098s.  If I were to quit riding (multiple) bikes, I'd probably have something to show for my income...

Now I'm in negotiations on Duc #7....  Wish me luck [moto]
