Hey guys
I apologize if this is not the right place to post this.
I have been amazed with the picture below (world record lean angle) and I have been searching and searching for a good high res copy of the actual image but apart from a tiny one I haven't had any luck.
Here's the pic:

Can anybody help?
Thanks!

Only got a couple myself, but they seem pretty tame compared to that and the ice one.
Good luck on your findings.

Out. Rageous. I can't believe they use those pictures of me and say that they are someone else.

All I can figure out is, the bike he's riding is a CR500.

Best bet would be to contact the publication, however you would probably have to pay for the pic though.

It's not extreme lean angles but my favourite is Rossi riding the gravel on the corkscrew at Laguna Seca :eek:

I thought these photo's from archive were better especially the guy with his foot off the ground above the ripple strip and leaned over about as far.

There's also a pic in my profile of an Italian rider who corners like that lap after lap. There are pictures around now with these guys with elbow sliders. the metal ones are pretty cool because you see a row of sparks off the elbow.
