    That last video is the one to watch, pretty much states everything in it.
    At the last round of the gncc in Snowshoe he finished 5 mintues ahead of our Pual Whibley. Knighter is a very very fast guy.

    Hmmm. Might be trying to back-door into our Axeman's spot on the Kawasaki team! Hope the mighty Whibs can find a bit of extra pace. I see Knight's bike appears to have WP suspension - homesick for his pumpkin?

    Don't think he'd stick with the mx suspension.

    Just watched him race the gbxc online, had big grins at the end, hopefully kwaka will let him do a few more events he wants to this year.

    I think its just that EFI 450's are the shit in general I'll stick to my medievil 2T though thanks

    Got he's a big man though eh! One thing I noticed in all those shots of him riding was he doesn't appear to grip the tank with his knees much?

    Interesting, is that some trails technique, watch his elbows to, they seem always to be straight, he's helluva good at retaining momentum.
