God I'm always late to the party, but sorry to hear you went down. But when I went through my motorcycle safety course the instructors i had really hammered the fact that you can't brake a motorcycle hard let alone at all in a turn. You have straighten the bike then brake to do it safely. Since I ride in heavy traffic a lot, I regularly practice emergency braking including in a turn so hopefully next time I react I stand a prayer of doing the right thing. Main thing though, is get well ride safe and learn from the experience.

lol, in all seriousness.. it makes perfect sense to ride on four wheels... but my thing is its so freaking boring. I got to have that adrenaline rush, and I can't get it out of driving my cavalier... that just doesn't do it for me.
