Hey just and update! So probably the second day after posting this i dragged knee. I just wasnt getting far enough off the seat, with my head to the side of the windscreen. Its all body position, it was alot more simple then it looks! Thanks for all your opinions!

All great advise. Lee Parks Book Total Control is a great book better yet if you get the chance take the course. You will learn the proper body positioning and be able to do it on a bike!

Track Days a must. Big benfit...No 4 wheelers talking on a cell phone.

you know .. not one person said anything about the reason for draging a knee. theres a reason for it . its not to look cool to all your buddys. it helps take some pressure off the tires. is not just a cool factor . learn to ride you bike and know what it can do before you try and drag a knee . your gonna end up in the HP and be bikeless because you tryed to drag a knee , lost control hit a curb and hurt your self ( if not killed) and trashed your bike ( and yes you can die from hitting a curb ) please learn the reason for doing it !

Feared600RR is right. There is a reason.

Lee Parks book and course explains why and the physics are in simple terms.
