EXUP Worldwide was born from the ashes of the original EXUP Brotherhood – the definitive forum for all those who have interest in Yamaha FZ, FZR, and YZF motorcycles.
Kiwi, maybe we over-analyse our riding, or is that under-analyse?? !! One thing I do know, which is critical for me anyway, is corner entry. Getting that right, and being able to carry speed in, then keeps mid corner speed up and allows getting on the gas to be more seamless - becuase you are already carrying the speed - rather than feeling like the need to jump on it hard because you've slowed up too mid mid corner. Let's put all our techniques and theories to the test at the Barry Sheene!
Sounds good to me

Life is funny! Something has been niggling me all day!
I can't believe this, but 22 years today I was married in California! She was one of those girls... Crazy! We eloped and made our way from LA to Yosemite Valley, base jumping everything along the way. We got married at the base of El Capitan, which is a 3000-foot shear cliff in the valley... And the next day... Ha.
Worst 10 years of my life
Here's a copy of the same marriage certificate used for our wedding! Funny! If you look down to where it says ordained you will see a bloke digging a grave
LOL That's nuts! At first I thought 'miner' but then, well, you don't dig a mine 2' wide by 6' long...
