[QUOTE="mcatrophy, post: 1414996, member: 3187"] The feeling I got was a bit strange. Had I been on a normal road, I would have reduced (but not closed) the throttle, and would have expected the rear wheel to come into line. But in this case, with the water resistance, the bike would have stopped dead, and would certainly have gone down. As it was, I still thought I was going down. The feeling of not being in proper balance and travelling a bit sideways gave me the feeling of the bike leaning on the water. Weird. The more I think about it, the more I believe it was the traction control that prevented the wheel from going further out of line while still providing forward thrust, so saving my bacon. [/QUOTE]
