Glad he was ok. It looks like he leaned it over too much. The rear slides out and starts to go forward, almost as if he slipped it on something, or he hit the brakes while leaning over...?

'' It looks like he leaned it over too much''

Agree!

Man, that started out as a nice gentle lowside, one that should have been just a deal of picking it back up and getting back in the race. Lose a few spots but no biggie.

The guy is fortunate he did not keep pace with the speed of the MC when it slid.

It would have been a different outcome if he were to be caught up in it.

Nothing a bit of duct tape can't fix.

Holy CRAP!!

Wow... that was pretty cool. That bike pretty much disintegrated.

Makes it easier to get it home. Put some of it in the trunk, some of it in the back seat....

I don't think he leaned it too far. The rear end started to slide out before he even had a knee down. Either he hit something on the track or the tire **** the bed.

Either way, that was some spectacular destruction after the gentle low side and slide. All of the damages happened on the nice soft grass outfield. The bike never would have flipped if the peg didn't catch in the dirt.

I love the guy that just bee-lines it off the track to avoid the carnage. Yeah... that would be me. Then I'd be headed to the porta-potti to clean out my leathers.

I like the rider's "Oh come on!" expression watching the bike blow to bits.

I admit I never thought it would end that badly when he first low-sided.

I am afraid that by spraying all that gasoline he has damaged that pretty green grass.

I hope they don't fine him for that.

This was a good find Mihalis, thanks for sharing it with us.

I've never seen a bike tear itself apart like that...

WTF - He just gave up the rest of the race ?!?!!? he could have rode part of that the rest of the way...... very disappointed in that rider....

"Alright, now where'd the factory tool kit go so I can fix this and get back in there?"
