TWF OGs
 
You guys have seen me grow in riding since I first bought that buell blast and joined the forum a couple days after. I've done damn near every style of riding other than dirt since then, 2 years and a couple months ago. Well Friday, for the first time ever, I got my knee down. Actually got it down twice within a few turns. Both times it was my right knee. Just figured I would share since it has been a goal of mine since I started riding and am still pretty proud of it.

Sweet.

smileyman 09-21-2009 12:22 PM

I'm not suprised. Your skill and confidence has grown. And the right side is typical of a street rider. I trust the right handers more since your leaning away from traffic and can usually be more aggressive from entrance to the apex. Good show!

marko138 09-21-2009 12:24 PM

I'm much better at rights than left.

t-homo 09-21-2009 12:31 PM

I am weird. I feel more comfortable going left because of the way that my right wrist is angled on right handers. I guess rights are better for me in the end though, lol.

smileyman 09-21-2009 12:34 PM

I spent so much time on counterclockwise tracks that I thought I was too. Even thought I did not descriminate on the streets but my tires tell a different tale. My front shows a definite preference for right handers in lack of strip and edge wear and the left rear shows heavy accel abuse from a point n shoot type of line. I must be riding the lefts and right different from the evidence...

t-homo 09-21-2009 12:37 PM

I can't get off of the bike as far to the rights, which may be the reason the tire is a little further down on that side.

good job t-rock, I still hate you

t-homo 09-21-2009 01:00 PM

Hater.

marko138 09-21-2009 01:38 PM

Both times I've crashed have been left handers.

Congrats. Right handers here. Interstate clovers are rights, and the only track I've been on had 7 rights and 3 lefts

He should be happy, my first joke was about him being able to get a knee down because his boyfriend pounded him so hard the night before that his legs spread extra wide the next day!:lol:

HokieDNA01 09-21-2009 09:50 PM

Hmm I'm much faster on left handers (my tires show it) since I can usually see through the turn and also any lowside wouldn't put me into oncoming traffic. Still haven't gotten a knee down though. I think my legs are too damn short.

Mr Lefty 09-21-2009 09:55 PM

Nice... good job bro...

I'm much better at Lefts than rights... I need to get to a track to work on my body position... but it won't happen before I sell the bike...

maybe I might end up getting a track bike down the road... :idk:

Mr Lefty 09-22-2009 06:09 AM

I would but need the $ to pay for the BMW

Cutty72 09-22-2009 10:54 AM

Thought that's where the money from the truck sale was going

CrazyKell 09-22-2009 01:49 PM

Congrats!

I prefer left handers but after careful observation I'm better at right handers.

I'm pretty awesome at getting my knees down though.

I could help you with getting your knees down. Maybe not on the bike though. :P :boobs:
