AT APPROXIMATELY 30MPH, I WAS GOING AROUND A SLIGHT CURVE WHEN WITHOUT WARNING THE FRONT TIRE STARTED TO SLIDE TOWARDS THE DOUBLE YELLOW. I WAS ABLE TO STOP THE SLIDE BUT ENDED UP DRIVING OFF THE ROAD TO STOP THE BIKE. THIS IS A STREET THAT I HAVE TRAVELED HUNDREDS OF TIMES BY BOTH CAR AND MOTORCYCLE AND HAVE NEVER HAD A FRONT END SLIDE IN THE WAY THIS ONE DID.
