This may seem mundane but they are the first pics I've seen of a 14 on a good lean so forgive me if I'm lame :D

The third photo down smacks too much of effort for my liking...

Well maybe... But you'd probably have to get that far off to drag a bike that big around a track at race speeds.

No way would you hold the bar by the bar end weight to gain corner speed. He's trying hard to get an elbow down.

Funny though, cause there is absolutely no difference in lean angle between pic 2 and 3.

That bike must have been begging for a slide down the road... pic 3 is just asking for an encore with a superman performance...

Yep, that's elbow down for the sake of it rather than as a result of hard cornering. A bit like when I made an extra effort to get a knee down at Broadford. All I got was pegs. :oops:

"Gos on Hoffham" scrapes more with less effort i Reckon.
Or "Hammer on Tambo" for that matter.
