In control?--Yes, right up until I released my hold on the bar grips and rolled away from the bike after I LAID THE BIKE DOWN.
How much control did you have over the speed and direction of your bike as it was sliding on its side?--None, as I was not on it, too busy controlling the direction of my body.Nor did I care about the bike at that point.

It appears that you have not spent much , if any time riding motorcycles. With your self-proclaimed knowledge about their dymnamics I would have to recommend that you don't start now, not that you would, as you wouldn't want to be thought of as "one of those idiots." If you do indeed ride and you can stop from fifty miles an hour in less then sixty feet or so when an object appears in front of you (such as an inattentive motorist)--and be in "control", I would love to take a class from you, then I could be a genius too!
