    Knee down is no big deal young fella, but if you're trying to do it then that will be part of the problem. I only ever do so on track, and only as a gauge to my lean angle. If I touch down riding on the road I actually consider it a warning to myself to back it off.

    Come to the Forum trackday; After two days of Oulton Park I can pretty much guarantee you'll have your mojo back & your knee sliders will look less embarrassing.


    P.S. You are allowed to post in other threads you know.! :lol: :lol:
