I like how the people who talk shit have no videos of themselves roadracing or knee down.This is the body positioning I use.I let the ground come to me.It also takes less effort to switch back to the other side.When i'm working 318 corners in 11 miles I don't care to hang off like a monkey.Most of the time I just pull my knee up next to the fairing and use my knee to gauge the ground.I have no need to put much pressure on my knee I use throttle control.See you at Deals Gap!
@PsychoDaveFilms So how would you take that turn? obviously at that lean angle any bad bump would cause instability but that is why that type of lean angle is reserved for proper tracks. In other words, how would achieve the same degree of turn at the same rate of speed in that parking lot? It was done perfectly.
Great vid but for those searching for vids like this because you are trying to be able to do the same, be careful! I have been told countless times not to do it in areas like this because the painted lines just like on the street offer less traction and when cornering like this you need all you can get of course. Find a place like this but with out lines like a loading area.
@yurlame757 hell yea i laid it down when my bike hit those lines. not too bad though lol. they bike was already down all i had to do was just sit on the bike when it fell lol. just some scratches on the fairings no engine damage. its all good.
@cskebriti excellent body positioning? really? look at that again the body positioning is very bad the shoulders/elbows rnt paralell to bars or anything
I agree, I am an avid biker and also a motorcycle tech....whatsagixer is either just a lame duck who cannot even put his knee down, or he is a back o the pack racer who proves his skills through text and not on the track.
If he would do it properly, he should be able to do it faster. Putting your knee down a little without real hanging off is just useless for things other than showing off.
Nice one, you make it look easy especially considering it's slow. I can kd on the right very easy but have only yet managed a left twice for about a second. I'm just not 100% as confident and committed on lefts - bizarre phenominon with directional preferences!
It's very easy mate, came second natural to me after I'd been trying and trying the night before, I had leg pains, ankle pains, not much confidents in my tyres or anything. The next day after a talk from my mate I'd touched down half way round... then after there was no stopping me. Once you've got that initial contact...it's piss easy. Take a look at my knee down video.
The foot pegs on stock bikes are lower than on racing bikes, so you've got to hide your foot as much as you can because it won't have any extra space outside the foot peg (your foot tip can't protrude outside the footpeg) and you've got to have like a butt cheek and a half out of the seat, and you have to extend the knee out at least like 45 degrees for it to make contact with the ground before the whole bike does... You can put a cardboard simulating the ground on the side of the bike and train
No messing, just straight to contact!!! Well done! I've got a GSXR SRAD and I can't get my knee down, I keep hitting my bleedin toe sliders & then shittin myself and standing the bike back up ;-)
So smooth. I want to be as smooth. Great job.

Body position is wrong. Hit a bump and I bet you fly off the bike.

Even if he could have expressed it nicer, he's still right. The whole point of hanging off is to get your weight on the inside of the corner.
The guy in the video has his upper body too centered, it should be in line with your butt parallel to the bike.

yer a pogue, he is doing 12 mph, how else should he look? you try getting that far over at that speed.....post a video.....id love to see it.

Why so aggressive?
If he would do it properly, he should be able to do it faster. Putting your knee down a little without real hanging off is just useless for things other than showing off.
