Looks like a totally avoidable crash to my eyes. Hope he survived to ride again.

[PimpS]

Yeah, i hope too! A bit of miscalculation about driving lanes. This can happen really quickly...

Ouch. Hope he's alright. I don't quite understand what he was doing. Was he going to merge two lanes over and realized he couldn't and slammed on the brakes after only merging one?

The guy in the crash posted on the video. He said his chaps came loose somehow and got caught in his rear tire locking it up. He was only merging 1 lane.

Exactly. His chaps fit too lose and the zipper came undone and the chaps got caught in the rear wheel. He's lucky in that that Dodge pickup pulled right over to block the lane or he'd have been road kill. He said he didn't even make the first payment on the bike when this happened - it was brand new.

Oh, ok. I only watched the vid linked here. :hide: Wow, that's amazing that that happened.

That's incredible and scary! Thank goodness folks stopped to help.

It's always amusing to see how people in cars react to changes in the flow of traffic.
That became a little more than an automotive cluster-f!*%.

Really sorry to see that guy go down.
It's a harrowing reminder of how quickly things can go from good to bad on a motorcycle.
