I agree Tomo, the R3's power has "blown" me out of a few situations that may have ended ugly if not for years of riding experience. Often times, "the brakes" aren't what gets you out of a pickle situation, the "throttle" is the ticket. I really think I tend to "escape" with acceleration vs. deceleration.
Whack it, steer it, save it (and yourself).
See ya.
