CB1100 collision - was it you?

[the Ferret]

High sides are to worst One can't be eager on the throttle out of sharp turns on the CB1100, tires are too skinny for the torque. My rear slips on occasions, but I have some experience on dirt, so it doesn't scare me into doing something I shouldn't. Slow is smooth, smooth is fast.

I remember my first highside, it was quite fun actually. Building I used to live in at the time didn't have a garage and I didn't want to leave the bike outside during the night, so I was parking my CB250 Jade in this garage in the building next door. The garage had a tile floor, some faux marble type, it was pretty narrow for a u-turn and it was slippery so I'd slide turn on the rear brake. One night, for unknown reasons (most likely experimental), I was in second gear and failed to cover the clutch, so as I slid the rear 90° I stalled it. Rear wheel locked in place and Jade just threw me over the right side LOL it was so much fun. The fact I was at a very low speed and in the garage away from any traffic helps this memory be a fun one, but I went through it in my head a 100 times and understand how in different circumstances that experience could have a taken a turn for the worse. Both myself and the bike went unharmed
