Rider falls of hill on Isle of Man TT

What a Dumb:moon: He stood the bike up in the curve

Did he stand it up, or did he get spooked on that paint stripe? or, did something happen mechanically with his bike? That turn was not that sharp. Looked more to me like he rode on the paint too long, got a squiggle, and had a SR (just like a tar snake)....
 
Something happened. He wasnt going that fast and had plenty of room.
Seems like he harkened back to the arguement he had with wife that morning and forgot what he was doing ?
 
He's on the paint stripe all the way around the turn I'll bet that's what did him in.

yeah i am thinking the same thing, riding the paint stripe then braking on it, maybe stood him up and over....it was nice to see the rider behind him get off and help him tho...
