WTF dude? whatdaya, looking down at yer boot or something? You are lucky. Australia, eh? nice getting a warm ride today, by me it's lil cool 😁 (all temps in F) my last 2 rides yest n day before were 50 n 53 degrees when I started. Before that 45, 44, 46, 46, 46 and that's my December log, only 295 miles of therapy, but still way worth it, wet roads, mud, debris, downed leaves etc etc. Ride safe.
I was checking my mirror that no one was going to overtake me, because there were cars behind me, bad move. I'm in South Africa, have a good ride and be safe out there. Thanks for watching 🙏🤙
@@bonnevilleridert100 Your looking down while steering into the oncoming lane is what did it. There were many contributing factors. Obviously, your bar end mirrors may look cool but they are awkward, made you have to look around your hand like you are looking around a corner. Also, bar end mirrors vibrate so bad that everything is a blur and you have to look longer. Plus they are so tiny and sexy you don't have much sight picture. Better to use real rearview mirrors located in front of you and higher in line with view ahead. Also, your clear ahead visual check was performed from the middle of the lane. You should have moved to the extreme right of your lane and confirmed your forward field of view before initiating turn into oncoming lane. Perhaps it would have helped to start further back from the RV. Also, it seems most people would balance all of these things in the proper sequence in a fraction of a second and you didn't for some reason. Not saying you were, but generally speaking the kind of mistake someone who is drunk, stoned, exhausted, etc. might make.
Now that you mention it, it probably was a bad move. I checked my mirror to make sure no one was going to overtake me, when I was going to overtake the caravan. Thanks for watching 🙏🤙
Unless you have over 170hp be very careful when overtaking. Those extra seconds on the wrong side of the road are lethal
Wow-if ever there was a case for NOT having clip ons this is it!

look twice, overtake once
Why would you even look behind you right as you turn into to the lane?

Boring
Tell us you're an idiot without telling us you're an idiot, glad you're still alive.
