@@TheJoker-gg8hc if you watch any of his other content, you would realize he does a lot of drifting and hard accelerating on dirt, which means spinning/drifting.

@@mbz4652i know that in a car you're supposed to slam the clutch, so the wheels can self-correct and recover grip, but i'm not sure if that would be the best idea on a motorcycle in the dirt
@@lazarpeuraca9618 If the dirt is very loose with only little grip, then pulling in the clutch is a valid maneuver. If the surface is somewhat grippy and with the significant weight of the Africa Twin this would likely end in a highsider, with the rear wheel being able to get traction on the lateral axis. If you keep on the throttle (or in the best case, slowly reduce your throttle input) you use up some of the available grip of the tire for that and keep the tire from gripping too hard and ending in a highsider.
This bike's weight balance and ergos are crap, fuel tank is too high and you sit too far away from the bars. I drove one in sand and single track and hated it. KTM has a better package for this sort of bike, but I know, I know they are unreliable.
@@WoZIMoo I mean i'm no expert but just because you didn't like it isn't the africa twin like one of the most highly rated adventure touring's on the market?
If the rear wheel slips there's hope. If the front wheel slips is game over. That being said that was quite an extreme slippage in a quite heavy bike. That save took every ounce of skill to pull off. Great job.
Having friends like that is the best. After narrowly escaping something like this, hearing them tell u how stupid AND awesome you are the same time makes it 500% better.
The engine breaking on the Africa twin can be pretty extreme depending on the settings, you can literally ride down a mountain without using your breaks. My guess is that he rolled on the power and the back end slid out so he rolled off the throttle and with heavy engine breaking it was the equivalent of him using the rear break and doing a skid. This has almost happened to me before. If ever you ride on dirt you want the engine breaking turning down.
I saw this bike for the first time in the heart of Brooklyn,NY. It was parked with a light layer of dust and scratches lightly rested on the panels from weaving through traffic. Magnificent, sadly it surely doesn’t off-road like this. 😢
10/10 save If you didn't let off it might've gone better, but either way you don't get highsided into a ditch so it's a win - your buddy had the same reaction as I did lol
Sometimes when we fall is because we panic and almost throw ourselves down the ground, lots of times you can save it (like this guy did), by just keeping the front wheel on track, the rear wheel can go wherever it wants as long as the front is on track.
Getting comfy with your bike aint like getting comfy with your car. When things happen they happen fast hard and often deadly. Been down a few times myself effing around and finding lmaoo
hehhe perfect bro! you nailed :) you understand why happen that? cant figuer other than too much air on tyre or something like that... cant understand :) but anyway seated will dance always the rear a LOT, i almost avoid doing in seat position otherwise it bounce hard and we have to be extecing :) love the sound man!

Got carried away eh...for a second there...all that sand and dust...well it happens on bikes...but they are good that they do all they can to save us...oh man I love my bike...
Ive hung my bike(s) a couple times like that in the grass with radials. One time it full turn locked left and right and it straitened back up. The other time the ass came straight around in slow motion and low sided to a soft slide. I would rather go down off road than on any day.
A friend of mine recently lost his eye while riding his dirt bike. So I'm asking you only one time. Where is your friend's googles? P.S. Very nice save, man!
first time i rode an african twin the same thing happens and on the way back i try ripping it again and suddenly it has all the traction in the world 😂

My heart would have left my body… good save!
You never stopped riding the bike. Great save.
That is the key.
A great save would've been not nearly crashing on a STRAIGHT line. Dude shouldn't be riding. He's got the skills of a homeless person.

@@TheJoker-gg8hc do you know how motorcycles work? He lost traction in the rear tire and then recovered it. Quit being an armchair expert.
@@TheJoker-gg8hcpretty sure he has better control of his bike than you’ll ever have
Excellent save, nice job not over-reacting with inputs
How are you supposed to use the brakes, acceleration, clutch,.. in this save?
@@mbz4652 nothing aggressive on any of the inputs, including steering. I probably wouldn’t touch brakes or clutch

dont be fooled this bike does everything for you. it's the second most electronically assisted bike in production.
I just love the colour of this bike. Nice save!
100+ hp dirt bike sounds freaking scary ngl
with 240+kgs weight too, must be like riding a boat

The grass biting that tyre saved you, wow man
Scientific based answer is the correct answer
If the rear wheel slips there's hope. If the front wheel slips is game over.

Great job.
Rear slips usually recoverable, especially if the suspension is good and soft.
Front.? Pray for a soft touchdown. :D
Lmao your mates reaction. Nice save bro.
Brown pants moment for sure :D
Holy crap!!! That was gnarly!!! Glad you kept it up!
Dang bro that was some crazy recovery. You are like a superhero nice job.
Having friends like that is the best. After narrowly escaping something like this, hearing them tell u how stupid AND awesome you are the same time makes it 500% better.
Phenomenal reaction, perfectly matched the bike's weight transfer without fighting it.

Hang on to it stay with it and don't stop riding it. It ain't over till you hit the ground proved right there. Nicely done.
As someone who is learning to ride on dirt, that is simply amazing reflex and skill at work. Nice save!
rly good save, props for not overreacting with the bike inputs and staying calm, shows that youre a high experienced rider, good job.
tf you mean "close" call? that shit was some next level.... awesome job dude!
its bros first liter bike i see
Nice! It's hard to resist fishtailing out of corners on these bikes.

If you're gonna break the rear loose it always goes better if you are standing not sitting
💯, plus weight the outside peg. Sitting down is asking for trouble. Nice save nonetheless.
Damn good save.
That’ll put skids in your shorts, nice save!
10/10 save
If you didn't let off it might've gone better, but either way you don't get highsided into a ditch so it's a win - your buddy had the same reaction as I did lol
Maybe turn that traction control back on lol
dang you kept those bars straight ahead. legend
Holy crap! NICE save!
I love seeing this bike ridden as its supposed to be, not these old people touring on them and calling a road like this "hard off road"
bro you made me love this bike, clean save, earned a sub
Code Brown - CODE BROWN!!!
how about electronics and system in the bike? Didn't they help a lot in that situation?
They do everything 🤣
Well held man. Any bike but not that beautiful machine. Best looking dual bike around
Been riding all my life. Don’t hit the throttle hard until you’re stable out of the turn. You almost lost it brother. Glad you’re ok.
Sometimes when we fall is because we panic and almost throw ourselves down the ground, lots of times you can save it (like this guy did), by just keeping the front wheel on track, the rear wheel can go wherever it wants as long as the front is on track.
nice drifting bud
that was insane!

Amazing save.
Check pants
Nicely held your nerve and carried it off with style 👍
that looked fun and scary at the same time :D
Defenitly switching boxers after that one 😅
My heart skipped 3 beats just by watching it.
what action cam do you use? hero 12?
I'm shocked. The guy rides behind you on a sand road and doesn't even wear goggles. Crazy.
Вам невероятно повезло что смогли удержать мотоцикл
After I saw the thumbnail, I did not expect to hear that kinda of sound from that bike, damn.
Just casually hitting almost 90 degree drift angle
that was close, nice control, that's practice and experience, cool save
Every guy is the same :') "YOOOOOOOO DUUUDDEEE, I though you were DONE"
Gotta wonder, was it in gravel mode with full traction control? That G button sure comes in handy on my AT.

Well held, some great skills on display there (apart from the rookie error of overcooking it in the first place 😊)
I'm a rookie. So he shouldve released throttle a little bit earlier, or just less throttle earlier?
Awesome job! Think the grass is what helped a bit in the end. 👍
amazing control

Thats what it's like riding a Yamaha 250cc two stroke and sitting a little too forward of the seat and being a little heavy handed.
What a save...Great reflex!
@Jimjam That save though🤟 Bro, do a tour of Nepal🇳🇵with that Africa twin.
wouldve changed my boxers after that one
oooofh, been there too many times haha :D Specially on ice/snow, good steering tho!
сегодня на перекрёстке, на гравии разложился, в поворот зашёл и затормозил на щебне

That's why you need 2 saddle bags. One with fresh underwear, the other one for used

Only proves that its made for real riders💪
Good f'n job saving it. Those tankslappers makes you wee a bit every time.
we all need a 200hp dirt bike they said...... even if its a whale..... not a actual dirt bike....
You just didn’t fall off the bike because you know how to deal with situations like that, otherwise, good save

I did this coming to a sudden stop one time behind a car that I didn’t expect stop at the yellow light….
What tires were on this thing?
nice save...you really broke the rear loose then stayed in the throttle somehow...maybe leave traction control on.
Nice maneuvers

How many accounts you got?
Fn rippin bro love it
Was one of your tires low on pressure or flat? Same thing happened to me once
Now that was skill.
I would have ate toss for sure
Damn bro thats some skill
You have AT and not driving like that all the time?
Getting used to that bruh, it's most fun thing you do it with your bike. :)
His rear tire hit the grass and brought his ass end back around. If that was a dirt shoulder he would have gone down
HOLY SWEET JESUS 😂 - insane save
Brilliant save
Nice save!
