Awsome dude, try to grab that tank with the outside leg, you'll be able to pull more laps with alot less fatigue! Once I started tucking it in I found my arms less sore and my thighs less tight throughout the day. Cool pics

Good advise on the outside leg position. These pics where taken on an outlap on day 1 i beleive. I spend most of the weekend working on being smooth and body position. I went through some of the pics from the race and it appears my outside leg is a little out of position. Something to work on for the next event.

heres a couple more.

Welcome, I'm gona have to disagree. My leg is out like yours just a little and I think its the way the tank is on the bike. If I try to correct it I can't get off the seat like I should. This isn't your first time on the track is it?

If you want my thoughts you need to drop your left shoulder a little more in the left handers and squareup with the tank. Try not to twist you body having you *** off and your upper body back over the bike.

Hawkrider will become famous soon enoughHawkrider will become famous soon enough
Resting the outside forearm on the tank will help with stability too, and will allow less unwanted input to the bars

You know what? maybe you're right, i've never had any photos taken at max. lean, maybe mine sticks out too, but it feels really tucked, as long as it has a hook on the tank, i'm sure it works!
