I think it saved me a high-side the other night. It was dark and I was cruising through a well known set of asphalt paved streets and intentionally making exaggerated L and R turns. Just trying to get a feel for the bike and scrubbing the edges of the tires on some grabby pavement. I went through a left-hander and didn't see a fine layer of ground asphalt and sand in puddle depressions on the road. I believe I was accelerating as I hit the junk and I felt the bike do something. I didn't even have time to think "uh-oh" and the bike caught itself. The sequence was lean over, then a very, very, very slight rev of the motor and then through the turn. I was asking myself what the heck was that! I checked the surface on my way back home and sure enough, there was enough loose stuff to cause major problems for a 660lb bike leaned over and getting on the throttle.
Any other experiences with TC activating? I'd be interested to hear what you felt and heard!
