Pedrosa, Rossi(Few others) Stress Meter!
 
Whats it all about

For those who ent got a clue what im on about

When going into corners just before or as they start to crank it in, the left foot comes off the peg and touches the ground.

I find myself doing it sometimes though :-s Only because when shifting down i get a slight uncomfortable cramp in my ankle easily and my ligaments twist(old basketball injury).

Thing is I heard Julian Ryder saying on the GP on Eurosport yesterday when they got a close up from behind Pedrosa "OOOHHHH now that is testing the water!"

So why do they do it guys?

Mr.Plowfield.....I was not know I do this until I am see video of race some time ago. I never was do it on 125 or 250 moto. I have found that it is become a involuntary action mainly create by force of braking and shift of body weight before curve, it helping me settle before turning in. I hoping this be helping you.:cool:
