    Nice!..............have had my Venturer upset similar a couple times. Even with a fork brace, old school design/extra weight and no 'leading' front axle can raise the pucker factor........instantly. It doesn't take too kindly to being 'loaded' that heavily runnin' twisties'. Its limit has to be respected, or it WILL make you pay.........quicker than one can react.....

      Wow, so I guess the take away message is, don't let go, no matter what! It looks like user input had very little to do with the outcome, but it is amazing that most of them were able to keep it on the track with only a minor deviation in course.

        I don't know about riding these heavy mule's out,if mine does go down,I don't want it flopping on top of me. Those bikes flopping around on the track,are considerably lghter than an XS.

          I had one of these last year when running too fast not on the best of roads as I backed off the throttle after hitting a rise in the road. I hit the throttle and it straightened up. I then gradually slowed. I really feel lucky because instinct was all I had time for. It will tighten you up for sure. These guys make it look easy.
          To fix the problem one should not make more assumptions than the minimum needed.
