A highside is a dangerous motorcycle accident that occurs when the rear wheel loses traction and the bike slides out from under the rider. Highsides can be caused by a variety of factors, including:
- Aggressive acceleration
- Riding on wet or slippery surfaces
- Hitting bumps or potholes
- Sudden changes in direction
Highsides can be very serious, and can result in severe injuries or even death. It is important to be aware of the risks of highsides and to take steps to avoid them.
