7:18 looks like he hit the brakes on a white line.

9:03 looks like poor conditions and too much brake. He was also following too closely given the wet stuff.

The first one is understandable. Wet road and too much throttle.


What the everloving hell happened with the latter two?

Grabbed the front brake both times looks like. Bike bounces back and puts him off balance.

He also turns the bars to lock before he's moving. Bike tips in as soon as he starts rolling. He hits the brakes, bike tips more, he can't hold it up. It's why the MSF teaches to keep the bars straight when you start moving.

Well it's funny because that's quite literally one of the first things you learn for your learner license here in NSW. He's from QLD though, god knows what they learn.

It's amazing how many helmets you see fly off, then the person smacks their head.

natural selection. I don't see why you would bother putting a helmet on but not fixing it properly. 'Yeah, I kinda want to make the effort of protecting my skull, but not really because the 10 seconds to fasten it just aren't worth it'.
