Thanks!

Thanks a lot man, I really appreciate it :cheers:

Yeah, the long video is from my third track day, which was about 4 months after I started riding. The first TD was three months after I started. By the first TD, I had had about 2500-3000 miles of street riding, and a decent chunk of it was twisties and practicing technique.

Your first TD pic is still pretty sweet though! You're not off the bike very much, but you've got a respectable lean angle going on.
That motard pic is sweet.... looks like it must be a pretty small dirt bike based on your knee being down so easily... it is a 125? A lot of guys ride the 450's and such... they are much higher and only the really quick guys get a knee down.

That last pic is nasty. :dthumb:

BTW noticed some of your pics were facebook links... hit me up on there.

Are you smoking crack? 450's are not much bigger than a 250. (A 250 is the 4 stroke equivalent to the 2 stroke 125)

I didn't say a 450 was higher than a 250... I was just asking what type he was riding because it was so small... and asking if maybe it was a 125... I don't know a ton about dirtbikes :idk:

Point was, most of the motards I've seen (many of which were 450's and such) are a lot higher than the one in that pic.

Since SM's use 17 inch wheels ans lower profile tires, they sit an inch or two lower than a standard dirt bike.

That makes sense. So why are all the guys I see at TD's riding SM's have a much higher seat and peg, and only the really quick guys get a knee down?

His pic just looked a lot diff to me, that's all.

They might be increasing their race sag. It's just a matter of adjusting the rear spring. They might want a higher setting to get the pegs higher.

Hmm, I guess that could do it.

Speaking of SM's, I found a SIC picture... I was meaning to start a thread about it :whistle:

NICE! Looks like your leaning the shit out of the bike on that last pic.

It's a suzuki, DRZ-400SM, it's a four hundred, and it's actually BIGGER than the 450's, and heavier. I just have a few screws loose in my head, so I do stuff like that.

Check this pic out, same motard, I noticed that my high-side foot was really light on the peg, and I wanted to see if I could drag knee with one foot off the peg. So I did. (And I didn't crash)
