Yamaha R6 Rider Crashes... Up a Hill

Ever wonder why people get tall enduros with nubby tires when sportsbikes are so much more fun? Here’s why!
In this video, you’ll see what happens when you take a Yamaha R6 off-roading, not by choice but forced by circumstance. The rider manages a close save in the corner but can’t stop his bike from understeering wide and off the road.

He hits a bunch of bolder and is thrown off the bike and into the air. Fortunately, he’s not carrying too much speed, so he’s uninjured by the crash. But he’s justifiably angry because his bike damaged. The tank is busted badly and even the frame looks a little dented. It’s leaking both gas and oil an needs a bit of tender love and care.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s.
