i dont know if its the geometry of the new bike, the riding position, the bone stock suspension set up...


but when i ran my 1:07 at beaver the other day... i BARELY got knee down in 10... prolly shitty body positioning, but that whole scrape knee thing is over rated.

When the checkered comes up sometimes I can't help myself but to lean it over with my knee of the ground and hand in the air

That's because 1:07's are slow.

You're like the murderer who really wants to get caught. The suspense is killing you, isn't it?

Well, I guess as a newbie to the forums this is a good place to start.

My very first day on a track, (albeit a very small one designed for shifter karts,) I think I was trying entirely too hard to get the knee down without enough speed. Obviously still alot of work to do on form and line selection:







From my second day on the track, these were snapped at Pueblo Motorsports Park. I don't know which turns they were from, so I don't even know what I was doing.
