WTF? I've never seen that before in my life, that looks scary as hell. It also looks by the spread that it's rebound based, my guess is you're cranking the bike way over on semi-track tires and then you're getting a rebound bounce that's unloading the tire a little and causing it to slip and catch.

Scary.


It looks scary but doesn't feel scary... but this was scary... my RS3 Rennsport cold tire slide on the perverted pavement...

That's a pretty standard cold tire slide there, on the front I'd figure you'd be sliding down the pavement.

You sure collect these things!

Slide occurred post apex which is impossible to slide the front... in fact you can lift the front in a wheelie
and still stay on the gas leaned over...

The RC45 has a single sided swingarm, like the Duc.
