I remember when everyone called Kenny Roberts nuts for duct taping a plate to his knees and leaning off the bike, then everyone else started to do it when Kenny was kicking their ***! I just can't see my self leaning off my SB like that unless I really have to cause I am coming into a corner too hot.

The way a dyna should be.

Did you lower your bike at all? From the pic it looks like you lowered the front some? If so, one reason your draggin' hard parts and draggin' hard parts is one way to really hurt one's self! Just sayin', great riding skill and stay safe!

Looks like stock height in SuperG's sig pic. Forks look lower with the superbrace and turnsig brackets. I couldn't imagine how bad he would drag with a lowered bike.

Awesome pic, love those Cali action shots.
