Why do you have to hang of the bike, when you could just lean and do the same without knee down

To be fair i reckon thats cranked over enough, first pic looks like his centre stand would touch down if he went any lower.


Nice.

Wish I could get my knee down
I just don't trust me, my bike or my tyres.

Nice action pics, Ham.

No, you have it all wrong... He HAS to corner like that because of the twisted subframe

I could get the pegs down on my CG125, doesn't mean I was doing super lean angles, it just means I wasn't hanging off and the pegs are very low down.

Hanging off the bike means that there is a greater force pulling you around the corner while the bike is sat up more therefore greater stability and more grip from the tyres.

Just because you can get your peg down doesn't mean that you are going very fast and you're a superior rider. Ham and his mate we're just mucking around and then you brought your massive ego into it, probably because you've never got your knee down and found how fun it is.

The first time I had my knee down properly, the exhaust was down too. That was a bit of a "WTF?!" moment back in the pits.

If you're sticking your knee out you're not doing it properly.

nice, always good to see others using them for commuting, there's honestly nothing better for using in a city IMO, i do a 22 miles round trip through the centre of london every day

too many peopel are sucked into sports bikes IMO, i was at first too

i've always noticed, the people i have chats with at the lights are always other supermoto users too
