My Adventures at Rockingham
Pictures courtesy of my mate Steve who struggled to find a decent place to shoot from, so these are all at the hairpin and shooting through the wire fence. Also taken in the AM while I was still struggling to come to terms with hanging off rather than foot-out supermoto style (should have given that a go actually just to see the reactions!).
By the afternoon I was getting the knee down (and a bit of boot), but really felt like I need some tank grip so I'm not using the bars to prop myself up. I'm tall (about 6'4") and looking at the pics it seems I'm a ways off from being able to lock my knee into the side of the tank.

Re: My Adventures at Rockingham
I love Rockingham....Some people say it's boring but I always enjoy myself out there.
Looking good although it does seem as if the supermoto leg out would be in keeping with the look of the bike

You know I bought it as an "S", but figured I'd build it close to my KTM so it wasn't a big change going back and forth between bikes (Renthal-type bars to clip-ons). The KTM has been nicked now, so no longer an issue, but I do really like the changes I've made - everything seems faster naked (so to speak).
