I really don't understand how this happened. Today I was riding (finally) some nice twisties... was feeling pretty good, getting some decent lean. Had already scoped out the run for debris... I came up to a sharp left-hander... shifted my ass over, got hard on the front brake and pushed against the tank, weighted my footpegs and dropped my head/shoulder as I made my countersteering input. Got to the correct lean angle, under modest throttle throughout the turn. Then, I began to decrease lean and get on the gas. I'm in first gear coming out, around 13krpm and I get on the throttle pretty hard.... and then it happened.
I wheelied. ![]() ![]()

It wasn't high, but it was for a decent length of road... couple hundred feet by my estimate. Got on the gas hard coming out of the turn and she came up a bit and just stayed there all the way to redline. I feel so ashamed.
