I don't release pressure with the outside leg until I use the knee to knee drill to pull me back on the bike or over to the other side. Outside leg also keeps you locked in and relaxed at the bars, while in a turn.

Should have really bothered to check the forum before posting that. Not sure I'm a subscriber to the clutchless downshift yet but time will tell.

I'll be interested to hear what you do. Those that figured out how to do it correctly (or get coached well enough) I have found like it, and in a way its simpler. But not all for sure.

Just from reading about it, I have been practicing enough that I shift cluchless up and down every shift when Riding at hwy speeds. Riding my dirt bike, I started experimenting and found how easy it was and then moved it over to my street bike. It took some practice and I still don't get it right every time, but I sure do like the way the bike feels when I'm riding aggressively.

"Not wrong at all. Pete also farts a lot."

But Aaron totally reminded me that I used to get rides on the back of my dad's Honda 350 scrambler, 3 up. Either my brother or i was on the front, the other one on the back...not even sure we had long pants on...
Gear? what was that? 3-up, I saw a guy do that a few years ago. Cruising along. Can't believe he didn't get pulled over?

My dad had a bike in the garage for as long as I can remember. I remember falling a sleep on the back of his bike going down a LA freeway. To him popping wheelie's and yelling hang-on just before he would throw it up. Not sure when I first rode my own, but I've been hooked since my childhood.

I run 35 psi F/R on street. For track 30-31F/28-29R. I figure the higher pressure's for the street would also help prevent damage to my rims on sharp bumps. Like the one's just before you roll onto a bridge.

Thanks for posting the date's Cobie. I haven't seen them on the schedule.

I think it's great someone on here knows what their talking about. Thanks Cobie...and Thank you Steve.

I look forward to reading all about it.

Streets is so much better.

What started me Riding was my Dad....
I Ride 'Track' because it gives me a challenge. To become better, faster, smoother. And there is no other feeling like it to rail around a corner hitting all your marks and diving into the next one!!!!
Street Riding, is more adventure Riding. Going places I wouldn't go in a cage. Making loops of at least 200 (s)mile's and just exploring.
Also, dual sport and dirt Riding. Great exercise and a nice way to get out into the great outdoors...
Later,
Aaron

I liked it. I could really see you 'Quick turn' and 'one turn per turn'.

Those guys are the greatest. My we all respect the track gods and pray a little more....

Great job Greg. You were my first coach at the Superbike School. I've watched all your video's of your racing and Deals Gap. Great stuff. I like to show off those video's to my friends so they can see how it's done. Congrats on a awesome year and a job well done!!!!

I also think video games are good for practicing skills.
I was playing Need for Speed Shift (great game by the way) last night and I was having trouble with a corner at donignton. I was running wide in the same corner lap after lap. Finailly figured out I couldn't see the apex when entering the corner and I had no referance point for a turn point. Dooh!
I also find if I use some of the tools I've learend from the school,and use them while playing racing games,I do so much better.

looking through the corners, and being smooth with the controls ( wipers, turn signal, stereo) :<)
