i was saying on the toes inside, flat outside, casey stoner....

 

I could probably do that if I had different rear sets. Though I sat on an STT instructors bike and the way his rear sets were set up would take a lot of getting used to for me.

 

yeah its amazing how much small changes make to the bike, my bike was dropped about 4mm in the front an i raised it up after my first track day for more clearance, an my turn in became much slower, ill be adding about 5mm of washers to my rear shock this winter to get it back to where it was

 

I have always paid attention to the two philosophies about the outside foot. I have always stayed on the *****, but I noticed almost all MotoGP riders use their heal on the outside. They must know something I don't. I tried it for an entire day and could not get comfortable. Maybe with more tweaks to positioning it becomes better, but for now I'm perfectly happy using the ***** always.

 

Yeah I think motogp riders are in those corners for several seconds, that's why they need that extra "planted on the bike" feel to stay ON the bike. But quick transitions and lack of long corners require you to be able to dance on the bike from side to side. Also the rear brake thing is weird because I have heard racers swear by it as a midcorner correction tool

 

Can someone explain 'neutral throttle' please? It's not a term i've heard before, then again we have no tracks in Guernsey

 

Aaah, I see thanks for that Joe

 

I just got back from Jennings GP over the weekend. I got to ride with all different skill level riders and picked up tips from all of them.
My biggest problem is body position.
I need to work on that , my suspension, and I need some grip tape on the tank.
My best lap time was a 1:36 .
I know I could go much faster if I correct those things mentioned.
Going to try to get a couple of days in at NJMP this summer as I live only 20mins away from the track.
Thanks for all the helpful hints in this thread.
