Yeah that is gonna be my next step. I wanted to get some pics of myself to see how low i actually am, and to establish what kind of riding style I had.

(lemme see if i can find the pics)

I would like to see yours so I can compare how sucky I really am.

Reason being is, if you low side in jeans and your knee is sticking out...theres a good chance your knee is gonna hit first and do some damage.

Hope this helps.

That is all!
