During a test drive of the Yamaha FJR 1300, Laurent Cochet, a journalist for French magazine Moto Journal, thought it would be nice to drive alongside the Saint-Martin-de-Ré dock, a decision he will very much regret.
As he enters the dock, Cochet’s motorcycle luggage box hits a steel post, the Frenchman then loses control of his bike and dives off the dock’s edge. Luckily though, he wasn’t seriously hurt.
