Ive got more traction since i aired the rear up to max psi and did a small burn out the otherday.
And ive even started throwing my knee out and moving over more then just leaning.
Actually took a turn at about 50mph knee out.
Serious squid.

While all these other people, who are clearly GP level riders, are acting like total fuckheads, I will just shoot straight with you.

While you clearly are viewing this as a step forward in your riding and your ability, what you are doing is dangerous. Max PSI on a 15 y.o. POS tire is bad idea. Couple that with railing on that tire and you are asking for trouble. For your safety I would STOP this immediatley. You could easily crash.

And if your dragging a broken peg...you are going to quickly drag hard parts and run out of lean angle.

Be safe.
