ParticipantNo it doesn’t. Hanging off is not putting a knee down or dragging knee or whatever-knee. You hang off to change the combined center of gravity of you and the bike to achieve taking a turn at a given speed with the bike more upright. The knee has nothing to do with hanging off. As a matter of fact you can drag knee without hanging off.

Participantyou only flip the bird, yell, curse, or whatever if you’re prepared to fight, prepared to deal with going to the hospital if the driver decides to hit you with the car instead, or prepared to dust the driver in traffic. If not, you’re better off going your own way.

Participanthave you sat on it? are you comfortable tipping the bike side to side a bit? if it’s comfortable to you go for it.

Participanthrm… i just use google maps and my brain to remember the route… pretty much free of charge…

Participantkilometers? what’s that in miles? anyhoo, i think on my sv, i rode it like a couple hundred miles before i said eff break in…
megaspaz
ParticipantIf you’re close to 1/2 way through the cycle, you can start wringing your ninja’s pretty little neck. The latest ninjas are still using the break in instructions from 1980. Ride it like you mean it. Some people scoff at break in altogether and seem to be doing fine.

ParticipantI haven’t given them a try yet. I don’t know if I will. They’re more expensive than keigwin’s and the curriculum’s about the same although there are some differences in opinions about lines. I’ll keep on doing keigwin’s and will may try out the star school as well, but i doubt it as keigwin’s curriculum is the same as the star curriculum. I’ve just created a good repor (sp?) with some of the instructors at keigwin’s and zoom zoom. So as far as school’s go, i’d recommend keigwin’s school whole heartedly as well as their trackdays and I’d also recommend zoom zoom for trackdays. either way, with whatever tdp or school you choose, it most certainly is fun and helpful.

ParticipantDon’t copy the URL. At the page of that URL you posted, look on the right hand side of the page for a text box that’s labeled “Embed”. Copy that and paste it into your post. I’ll fix your post so you can click edit and check out the link that embeds in posts.

ParticipantLookie at the Gladius then. It’s the replacement for the sv650. They lowered the seat height on the gladius compared to the 2nd gen sv650 so it’ll be less to drop.

Participanthrm… you might want to stay with kawi. afaik, for sportbikes, their ergos are closest to standards and always seem to be a tad lower than the other sportbike makers. I’d look at a 650r.

ParticipantSorry. Although midwest born, I’m california raised… been living here all but 8 years of my life.
