Already need them and to me the roads were okay on Saturday, warm enough and once I felt the temp in the tyres go down due to slippyness I stopped.

Not much, especially looking that it wouldn't have helped today.

To be fair you didn't have leathers last year did you? I've seen you cranking that SV over a lot but you can't exactly try and get your knee down in textiles! :mrgreen:

Looks fine but remember your knee going down is to gauge how far your leaning. So in that sense your position is fine you just need to lift your knee as you go further over. Just be careful as when you get to the point there aint no going back.

Not bad, you are getting there and it is by far not the worst I have seen, but as you already pointed out it is you thats is leaning and not the bike!
