Right. I've felt that before. My transition was pretty much done and I was starting to lean the bike more. Could still play a factor after the fact because the suspension is trying to catch up, I dunno. It's just something I've never felt on the track or the street in my six years of riding. It took six years to have an official wreck. Not too bad...considering I ride like a maniac in most peoples' minds.
