What you dont get the knee down through the sweeper

what a homo

ummm
it's called not backing off...soo many people hcicken out through the sweeper (turn 8)

like wtf?

you keep it pinned the whole way...you pass so many people round the outside 3-4 at a time if they are bunched up....

have enough speed round the outside....knee down peg down ....alll good

you just gotta be going for it to knee down the sweeper

i can knee down every corner at tupo except turn 6....

because soon after you are under brakes for turn 7....

We need more pictures. Some evidence of each corner where allegedly there is some "mark-knee-tarmac loving"
Also an afferdavitt.

Oh and witnesses.

Hey all...

long enough till he blew up the engine...

he did get his knee down. On quite a few corners. But it's not about that. getting your knee down can slow you down. I have my leg up against my fairings and so when the knee goes down I know it's over quite a way. There are 3 corners I stick my knee out a little just to see how far over I am so as not to loose the front.

skidMark is a legend in his lonely little kitchen.

Mark, dude, how about you stop frantically begging everyone to suck you off about getting your knee down, and go get a job so you can afford a proper bike?

i've got my knee down right now....i can knee-down and type at the same time and sometimes I can type with one hand, drink a coffee and have my knee-down...i can tell you're all just amazed. If i really lean off my chair I can actually get BOTH knees down, of course then I sometimes need to balance with a hand so I have to either stop typing or put down the coffee....

I dunno why you guys hassle Mark so much. Possibly the way this all started is because he was being hassled for not getting it down and now he can you want to hassle him again.

Don't know how many trackdays your've done Mark but from what I saw after you passed me you weren't doing to badly. One comment a would make is try and lean your whole head and body off the bike and low. The point is to have the bike leaning as little as possible as more bike lean means less drive and steering precision.

For the record my sliders didn't touch the track all day.
