I've realised this past weekend that I’m going to get killed soon.
I do 99.9% offroad solo riding. I tend to carry a lot (too much) speed into corners and when I downshift rapidly the engine braking is not always that predictable (depending on body position before corner) I’m usually all over the place…the daemons from the pigs in the Bible are in me when I’m on the bike. Also this bike is heavy and carries a lot of momentum...I dont like overshooting corners.

I’ve gotten used to the slipper clutch in the Ducati and was wondering if it would be possible to do a conversion from the 950 SMT slipper clutch or something? I understand that I might not gain a lot from a slipper clutch in the dirt?
Anybody tried this? Any opinions?

Dave
