I've done the L1 - L3 classes, and on the class bikes, I was really able to lock my knee into the tank. There's a really nice pronounced "lip" (for lack of a better term).
I have a GSXR-1000, and the tank doesn't have such a lip, and I'm finding it hard to lock in. I've got StompGrips on, but it still doesn't feel as positive as I would like.
I was looking at some video of some of the Suzuki guys (Mladin, Spies, and Yates), and it looked like they weren't really using their knees, but were just using their feet. I really liked the way the class bikes felt, and if there's a different technique, I'd love to hear it. I just don't feel as confident that I'm locked in.
Suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
