Knee down on public roads
Honest question, looking for an honest answer. Why do so many sport bike riders strive for body position and getting a knee down on public streets? Of course there is the group of beginner riders that think that's "just how you do it", but I'm talking about experienced riders that do it going 20mph around an easy curve. (spoiler: The answer I'm looking for is "it's definitely more dangerous, but super fun and I can't help myself!")

@Diana Ramirez I found it easier when I didn’t do it. I was concentrating so much on the knee being out that when I stopped I picked up the other stuff better.

@Daniel Tolomei That’s what I thought, everyone that I know who rides I don’t see them do it on daily rides. I do see online at tracks and the guys doing a less aggressive version on the twistys on the mountain roads.

Wanting to learn
Hi everyone! I’m from Philadelphia, PA and am eager to learn. I will be taking the MSF in 2 weeks and hopefully will be riding as soon as I find something I like.

I took a private lesson last month. Did okay but went into neutral a couple of times from first gear and had trouble with going from 2nd to first. I kept strangling the throttle.

Every time I see her videos I am amazed at all the work riders like her must have put in to get that good.
