I am sure glad you made it through that. That looked really scary.
It is great to see you reporting on your efforts.

Hey Rory, that was not my ride but the owner's. I had just got off it after a similar experience but seeing as it hadnt done it to him before he decided to have a ride on the long track. My top speed was 164. That was when the weave started and same as the ride on the video as soon as you throttle off the tank slapping starts. We are working on weight distribution.
After my ride we took pics of me and him sitting on the bike and we sit quite differently on it so put the different riding experiences down to that. It seem not to matter once you get up to the weave speed.
