Cause of this crash?

Sorry if this is someone here, but this is shitty positioning

Thats Bill, the owner of Grand Prix. He started racing back in the 80's when that type of body position was the norm.

Maybe you can get Grubbs to come pick you and your bike up that way the two of you will have plenty of time on the way to the track to debate this.

Not happening! There is nothing to debate

It kinda looks like he started dragging hard parts which caused the tires to lose traction and the resulting low-side.

I don't understand why people compare body positioning with all the top racers? It isn't even close to any type of real life riding, apples and oranges

Please explain total shitty positioning comment

BUELLER, You pretty much have the same view as I have. My argument was, how can someone have a proper body position? With so many riders out there at the TOP level, most have different positions. This Pic with Casey and the TOTALLY SHITTY BODY POSITIONING comment was ment to be totally sarcastic. mmmmmmk?

[kawasakirob]

There is so much emphasize on Body positioning its stupid. It just comes down to if you can ride a bike fast or not. Look at Spies and his style. Rossi's tall skinny frame, Pedrosa's tiny frame, Capirossi's Vs. who the hell cares. The Stoner photo was a sarcastic comment about body positiong. Besides, I have the best body positioning out there.

Hey bueller, what do you think of the guy on the blue r1? http://www.cosportbikeclub.org/forum...ad.php?t=30943

What Jim said, don't try so hard to drag knee and get the upper body leaned more into the turn.

Fast not always comes with perfect positioning, some people do great with technically poor positioning. but the lean angle on his bike is excessive due to his body position.

Body position play a huge roll on how much lean angle is required to make a turn. Yes there is a correct form of body positioning, each persons will look a little bit different because of their body style. But all in all they all reach the general concept of where they need their body to be.

I agree, they all have the same basic picture.
