Smooth! Very nice bike, too. Just got my first knee down today. It's definitely a great thrill and feeling of accomplishment! It's old news for you by now, but congrats anyway!
Good tips dude, I got my knee down for the 1st time a few weeks ago as well, I was chuffed to bits. Hanging off the bike is essential, it allows to take the corner faster by putting your body closer to the center of gravity, therefore meaning that the bike doesn't need to lean as much. I lean off on every corner now, not always to get my knee down, it just makes cornering easier and faster... plus it looks awesome =)
I couldn't get my knee down until I did this.Looking through the corner will help you keep your line. Use a higher gear than needed for smooth contolled acceleration and throttle control.
I've never tried it on a damp day. But on a dry day I go for a 20min blast to warm the tires up and do a few laps of the roundabout to get a feel for everything. Get half your ass off of the seat, the ball of your foot on the end of your foot peg, and hang your knee out as far as you can.Most importantly get your head low and off the side of the bike and look through the corner. Let me know if you do it mate..
