Some people fear riding in the wet as they claim ot having any feel of the motorcycle. While we kind of understand them, we must definitely say that riding on wet roads is no rocket science, and pretty much anybody can get home in one piece with no fuss, provided some basic rules are obeyed.
The first rule is really.. no rocket. Grip is easily lost in the wet, and sporty tires are even worse. Riding with a lighter hand and avoiding sudden maneuvers is paramount, whether we're talking about strong acceleration, braking, fast turns and the like.
And guess what, breaking this first rule is more than enough to crash. Don't believe us? Alrighty then... watch the video and see for yourselves. Funny thing that we could almost swear he'll lose grip on the pedestrian crossing..
