I had a guy that works for me go against all the advice I gave him and bought a brand new 07 R6 a few months back. I tried to teach him the basics slowly and things seemed to be going okay for him. Then he took the MSF and did the exact same thing you did and put the bike right on it's back. I fixed it for him pro-bono, but it was a pretty lousy way for it to happen. The MSF instructor was harping on him about not being aggressive enough with the front brake, he (the guy that works for me) got pissed and grabbed a handfull of brand new R6 front brakes. It didn't work out so good. I had to replace the whole subframe and do a little bit of plastic and gas tank repair for him. He learned from that too.calreef18 said:I'm still pretty new to the biking community, laid the poor thing down a couple times already but have learned each time (first time I was scared trying not to crash and grabbed the front brake too hard, flipped the bike all the way over...
