Fordie, heres a new photo of Jamie getting his elbow down again on my MV, still on road rubber - Dragon Evo's, he even managed to ground the fairing this time, only slightly, but still managed it and still can't believe a bog standard road bike can handle like this...............

Seriously doubt thats possible - the drag from the leather pushing down into the tarmac would pull him off the bike!!:o

DJ - Believe it, thats a real photo and was taken about 4 weeks ago at Brands, I've seen Jamie do this both times on the MV and I've seen his elbows in his leathers afterwards - or should I say, what was his elbows :lol: - its a genuine photo, check out this months (Sept edition) Fast Bike mag if you don't believe me !

As for the rider you are on about it was Ruggia.

I'm not talking about elbow down, TBH if I moved my upper body all the way over I could probably do it, I was talking about losing the front end, and pushing the bike up with your elbow...

in which case your probably right !! :lol: :o
