well i want to learn how to drag my knee!! I live here in NC were theres plenty of places to put that knee down and some of my friends do!! I got my pants but I havnt tried it yet!!I know I get good lean angle but what do I do?I ask my friends and they always tell me its hard to explain!So then im like well how am i supposed to learn!!Im defenitly fast in the curves!! I usually drag my hand on the ground.and my arms arent that long cuz im only 5'6"!! Any suggestions or links that explain would be greatly appreciated!!

 

First off, I never recommend dragin' on the streets because of you know why. Too many unknowns out there for safety. I don't care if you have the best bike out there and drag on the streets, something eventually will bite you.

I found that reading Codes books help some, but the actual deal is to play on track days and get instruction. I will guarantee you that lessons learned from riding in a set environment, being observed, taped and then riding again will totally overwhelm what you thought of yourself as a fast rider. You will dig the experience.

 

WHY IN GODS NAME WOULD YOU WANT TO DRAG YOUR HAND?!?!?!?!?! leaning that far over with one hand on handlegrips? might be just me, but remind me NOT to ride behind you in a curve man....

 

why drag knee when you can drag elbow........lol

 

Stick your knee out, hang half your *** off the seat and lean.

 

Yup, as said above. If you slide off, hopefully you would know why.

 

kinda like that? thats at a local track by me, open track day....
i usually just put my leg out...

 

not much into pushing it on the street but if you must, find a clover leaf on the highway at night when there aren't many cars. if you can find one without gaurd rails you'd be better off. take a trip around slow to check the road to make sure there aren't any unknowns on the road. then start picking up the pace to get the tires warm. after you've made a few trips around, start laying into it. that's the best way to push things if you're knew at draging stuff. but your better to do it on the track than the street
