Title: Re: I hate it when Post by: Jobu on August 12, 2008, 12:00:10 AM you feel like your leaning a lot but then your friend tells you that you are not really leaning at all LOL Usually my friends tell me I'm leaning a lot and about to fall over when I feel like I'm standing perfectly upright. [drink] Seriously though, find a good road where you know it is safe (preferably the track, but at least a road with no cross roads and little to no houses. We have a road next to a nuclear plant around here that is perfect) and just push it. Check your chicken strips for proof or mark your tire edge with chalk and try to scrub it off.

When I review my trackday photos I'm always like, "damn wtf? I know I was leaning way more then that!" hahahaTitle: Re: I hate it when Post by: muscle_cars_only on August 14, 2008, 03:13:19 PM Usually my friends tell me I'm leaning a lot and about to fall over when I feel like I'm standing perfectly upright.

Oconee , Mcguire or Catawba?

Stop being a pussy and twist the make the beast with two backsin' throttle." [laugh]

[laugh] or when you're riding as hard as you can, feeling like you are on it 100% and your instructor sits up in his seat, turns around to look at you and slaps the tail of his bike (meaning keep up!) mid corner.

Or your instructor comes sailing past you, done with all his braking, both hands off the bars, just coasting through the corner, giving you the "screwdriver hands" reminder. Ok, so that was the session immediately after my close encounter with the stuck throttle kind, but it still made me laugh at my pansiness.

[laugh]
Title: Re: I hate it when Post by: duc996 on August 24, 2008, 04:31:14 AM I wouldn't worry about what others say about your riding,you know you're getting better when you feel more comfortable and relax when riding,speed is easy,technique and honing your skills are the hardest part.IMHO
