laying it down is NOT a good option to me. I'll do that emergency stop the MSF teachers drilled into my head like a MOTHERFUCKER while shitting bricks probably. or simply swerve and brake if need be to avoid an accident.

laying it down counts as crashing no matter what, so honestly, its just not a good answer to a legitimate problem.

if you've taken an MSF course, you know to brake and swerve, to avoid a crash, or do an emergency stop so you can avoid crashes. both are outstanding solutions that allow you to not see how well your gear(or skin for you squids out there) holds up to asphalt. and keep your bike looking nice.

if you ride a harley with no front brake, or drum brakes, disregard this, have another beer and lay it down.
