[QUOTE="Kav, post: 34413, member: 21442"] Danman, High-side: lets say you are coming up a left hand turn too fast as you lean the bike over to turn the rear tire starts to slide you try to bring the bike up to prevent from falling over the rear tire gets traction casing the bike to flip violently to the right (in a left hand turn). Low-side: now you are coming up to a right hand turn too fast, you start to turn the bike and the bike is leaned over far enough that the front or rear tire loses traction causing the bike to go from a controlled lean to falling on its right side (Right handed turn) and sliding on the ground. Going to slow and leaning to far and falling over because of it can also cause a low side. Tank- slapper: I think that is extreme headshake. It is so bad it causes the riders thighs to slap the tank. In Super Bike racing a high-side usually destroys the bike as it flips out of control. :eek: (They end up on the 11:00 news sports highlights ). Low-sides usually mess the paint up and will allow the rider to continue the race if they can. P.S. If you could, would you e-mail me with what if anything you have you done to your DR? I'm getting ready to get a Thumper Racing 435 kit and a few outher goodies for it :p ------------------ '01 YZ250 '92 DR350S Lessons will be repeated until there are learned.
