Had one similar to that, not going quite as fast but I would say just as violent, with my first rocket back in 05' (CBR600RR). It was on the 10 FWY through Fontana where all the big rigs wash out the road. The FWY oppened up and I opened up the throttle and switched lanes at the same time and suddenly wobble wobble. At first I tried to fight the handel bars but things got worse really quickly. The bike started to oscillate from back to front. I thought for sure I was going down and I think I almost started crying. I though well if I'm going down I want to be going slower so I gave it some rear break and immediately she straitend out. I litteraly pulled over and kissed the ground as my entire body was shaking. Uh gives me the hebie jebies just watching this video. What the hell was he doing going 140+ on a two lane road  ?

So whats the best way to get out of a tank slapper? Off the throttle, loosen grip on bars and hug the tank with your thighs? That's what I've heard from people, can anyone confirm?
