What book ??  We were supposed to get books ??

I can read !!  I read books !

Steve, you should have got a little folder of stuff from me at my school, two schools I think you came to...There is some info in there.  Like most of my stuff, pretty simple and straight forward.

Well being A "noob" and a tall not so wide guy (6'5" 185lbs wet) I find I'm alway on top of my tank while cornering, hooking my thigh on the tank and bending over so far to where my chest is where your mirrors are. That seems the ONLY way to get a knee down. But I would be open to any other way to achive the same low gravity postion ie do I have to drop a knee to be fast?......hmmmmm

Yeah, "tallness" can make you kind of funny on a bike.  Still, at 6'3" and 200#, Dale Quarterley beat everyone in an AMA Superbike race.

Gettin' a knee down is directly related to leaning the bike over.  And getting the bike leaned over is related to suspension.  You can do it with a stock set up, but it protests a bit compared to a race set up.
