Isn't this a repost? Maybe on another site.

Close call, but the dude would not have gone off the road if he would have been looking into the corner and not in the dirt.

Ouch - I've never been a huge fan of crossing the double yellow in a blind corner myself. That could have ended far, far worse. 101 you're probably right but I can honestly say I don't think I'd have the presence of mind to keep looking through the turn after almost being head-on'd. More like "Holy F**K" followed by "WTF WAS THAT?!" then "I'm alive! I'm alive!" then "Oh SHHH...."
:eek:

Although if you look the guy did know to pull his knee in and cock his head to the right, right before he went off the road

Right.

Over the yellow in a blind is one thing. Passing a car is another. Wow street riding freaks me out....

Those guys are very well experienced, it was a quick decision. Maybe a little less hesitation to go in the dirt would of resulted in impact. Busting their balls for taking quick action to miss a head on accident is pretty stupid.

Cliff notes:

Some jackass at the gap passes a van on a blind corner crossing the double yellow running two KTM SM's off the road barely missing one guy who hit the oncoming bike's mirror with his elbow.
