There is a large roundabout down on the South Coast quite close to Chichester that I have been around many many times with no problems at all. One evening a couple of years ago it had been a nice sunny day, into the roundabout as normal nothing on the roundabout just started applying a bit of power coming out and the back stepped out took me completely by surprise a mate following on his Aprillia 1K saw it kick so touched his brakes and nearly lost the front end. We pulled off the roundabout parked up and went back to check there was a thin hardly visible film of diesel over about a area of about 7 foot wide by 12 foot long.

I wonder how many bikers arseoles Clintched because of that spillage. Only takes a little
