Wasn't there a picture of Jezza McW on a 250 Aprilia with his elbow down? Didn't he pick the bike up on his elbow and then knee to save an off?

There was a great poster given away with Bike magazine,some years ago, of JP Ruggia rounding Coppice at Donington with his elbow on the deck.

That AMA guy looks like Josh Hayes on the Superstock ZX10.I hope his front wheel is non standard!

This is what happens when you lend your MV to a Bike mag for some pictures as our friend Muttsnuts(Dave Whattam) found out . 4D
