        I registered for Honda Racing the day, packed my bags next week and left.

        I never felt more alive.
        Could you please share more details about Honda Racing? When does it happen, how many days, location, fees, gears own or company-provided etc. etc.? I tried to search on internet but couldn't find some concrete details (although didn't search hard enough to be honest).

                                RSM mate, no doubt why you ended up crashing. in your first pic itself one can see your bike's front has already folded and will crash you out the next moment (which did happen)...

                                not to criticise or make fun of your crashing, just saying that from that pic itself it's clear the way you tried to corner was very improper particularly considering that big a lean angle, that too in a bike whose chassis and suspension aren't supposedly the kind that can usually sustain such a high lean angle to begin with :-)

                                even for bikes like R15s and RCs and the like which are made for cornering, unless perhaps ridden by a very skilled rider who excels in cornering and is very habitual to it, such a high lean angle (which seems to be nearly the max lean angle these bikes can do in the first place) will be very near to crashing and indeed will actually crash or nearly crash for most riders..
