As dependable as a dirt bike suspensions are for providing exceptional damping when riding on rough terrain, they certainly do have a limit. Just like dirt tracks do.
And at times, the riders are also trying to push things a bit over their own skill's limits, things go wrong. And since we're talking motorcycles, this means crashing.
The rider in this video failed to keep inside the dirt-filled groove as he cornered and went off the off-road, into the vegetation, bucked off from his bike. To make things a bot more interesting, the bike also rolls over him, most likely to provide one extra week of painful memory.
Our chap is alright, if a bit battered, and he'll surely be up and riding better in no time. Lucky fellow and merciful bike, as hitting those trees would have not been exactly funny...
