Laurel Canyon a "wonderfully twisty road" ?......lol, looks pretty weaksauce to me

If you want to get your rocks off zooming within 20 feet of rich people's homes and parked cars, do it on Soledad Mtn in San Diego, it's a lot more twisty than that.

OMG that motor sounds awesome!

Sounded like he had dropped a fair amount of speed entering the corner, and he didn't slide very far before standing back up... unless it's got a crazy low speed limit i doubt he was over.

And yeah, even if i were doing the speed limit, i probably would have done the same thing if i came into a corner and saw a damn police car sitting right there. It's just a reflex.

It's a bad situation... seems silly to say that the cop caused the accident, but i can't really say that i think the biker would have gone down if the cop hadn't been there...

I don't think he was speeding and if he was it wasn't by much. I grew up on that road and it's really twisty and someone atop the bike would put that much lean in just to get around. Now it wouldn't have been as dangerous if he would get off the bike.

I don't think the cop is at fault. It probably wouldn't have happened had he not been there, but we all have to be disciplined to maintain our line and our focus to the bike to have a safe ride. He let his knee jerk reaction kill a perfectly good line and stable bike.
