It's just a long exposure. While it is nice, it certainly doesn't go near "the best pic of all time". :wink:

It's a great pic IMO, nice one.

At least you are getting to ride your bike at the moment. I'm not. And I'm pissed about it!

Me likey, nice pix. Just out of curiousity about how long did it take you to learn to put your knee down and drag threw a corner? Mabey im just crazy but I cant imagine it would take more than 6 months of consistant riding and the correct gear to work up the nerve.

its really hard to say.... I bought my bike and road it for 2 months with only a helmet, textile jacket, and gloves... then when I started getting faster, I decided it was time for a leather suit. So I bought the leathers and boots. Two days later, I was dragging knee. So I guess you could say it took me 2 months... but I dont know if I would have done it sooner if I had the suit from the beginning, and I dont know if I would have done it later, if I wasnt pressured by the camera following me. Best part of having a camera chasing me from behind, is I got my first ever knee down on film!

first ever knee drag...

hey heres a q for ya when i took my ride i didnt look at the speedo much mostly the tach if anything. Usually i would ride it like i do most cars i just listen to the motor and keep it in the power band. It was sooo easy to get to excessive speed!!

yeah exactly, thats why I was guessing how fast I was going... I get familiar of how fast I usually go in what gear... and by knowing what gear im in, I can sort of remember how fast im going.

That is a great image BUT, if that darn car/silver object wasn't in it, it would be a near perfect image. good work

Putting your knee down really has nothing to do with how fast you are going. You could put your knee down doing circles in a parking lot if you really wanted to. Many times putting a knee down is more about style than anything else. Yes, you will/should have your body shifted over, and in many cases your leg will be out to some degree, but it isn't really necessary to have a knee on the ground. Many attribute a knee on the ground as meaning the rider is really fast and very skilled. That is not always the case. Just wanted to point that out.
