    We all learn. We've all crashed. Hopefully he gets back on and learns something from it

    Poor guy. Looked like he was tryin to me. IMO its harder to shift weight to the left cuz your throttle is on the right and you have to stretch, especially when turning.

    Yeah, that was very mild... I did see a good friend do the same thing a while back on his 225, just enough to put a smile on his face when he got up! haha

    I agree, left is harder than right. He was leaning, but not far enough. Its happend to all of us.

    Heres what happens when you give your camera to your girlfriend and try to show off.... (at least snow is soft)

    He had his weight right just looked like he was in too high of gear or not enough RPMs. And right hand doughnuts are far easier

    I prefer to donut counter clockwise. But it's because i'm very tall on my ytm-200. When I turn right the thumb throttle hit my leg and it go WOT.

    The part that bothers me is that he puts his foot down as it is tipping (in an effort to save it I'm sure). I never take my feet off the pegs. And yeah, I've crashed just like he did, quite a few times.

    Hmm, my preference is to go doughnuts the direction hes doing them!. Find it easier to hang off that side.
