Knee driving on R1150R

Knee driving (don't know the exact phrase for driving through corners with knees sliding on road)

Are there any pics availible of R1150R with knee driving riders?

Knee drivers?...maybe knee sliders.

I've seen plenty of R1100S pics...but not many (if any) RR's

Why?....it could be done easy....on a track.

My last tracxk day a week ago Sunday I shared my pit area with a gentleman I met on the RT board who was riding a "Bumble Bee" R1150RS. He "accidentally" scraped hid right cylinder head cover but did not drag his knee. He had a pretty good little scrape on the metal of the cover (no plactic protectors).

I am sure that if one wanted to, one could put their knee down while riding an R, so there must be some pictures somewhere. My bet was on DJ to come up with one....Maybe somebody has a track day photo of themselves doing it!

Okay. That does it. A pic for each occasion. How in God's name do you come up with these pics? Couldn't be as simple as a google search or rss, could it? Come on....tell all, DJ!

No tricks or secrets...I remember seeing that pic posted on the Rockster board about a week or so ago.

Maybe even by Yahooboy...thank you Scott if it was you. (I'm sure you're still watching from above).

It only took a few minutes to locate and copy across here.
