    I don't think he would've been scared really. Simply put, he ain't doing it right. He is cramping his body to the extent that he is beginning to feel uncomfortable mid-way onto the corner, and that is pretty visible!

    @Joel: Lovely pics there. In the first pic, who is the guy behind you, the helmet looks familiar to that of a RTR rider

    I noticed the guy behind you (in the first pic) is doing it all wrong! It is pretty evident! Your technique is terrific, would love to learn it all from you.

    If a so called "novice" like you can take a corner at 95+ and scrap the knee like that, then I would LOVE to be a novice all my life! I can hardly even think of taking a corner at those speeds, let alone scraping my knee..

    P.S: Certain tips about how you do it would really help newbies like me, sir.

    @Apar: If I follow Killer, even 1.05 is possible

    Will definitely call man. I love hanging out with you guys

    @nitro: Rewind a bit man.. can't see the lean

    @Mav: Last OT, let's move to the topic. Dainese is slightly more expensive than Astars. Plus Astars had a sale going when I picked it up

    OT part :
    Being rossiter you should have been more inclined towards Dainese..
    Budget concerns..?

    Actual post :
    Hopefully i'll get to see Killer saar at Irangattukottai during the next R15 championships. Im planning on tagging along with a friend of mine who owns an R15. He rides to Chennai for the races...
