You guys have seen me grow in riding since I first bought that buell blast and joined the forum a couple days after. I've done damn near every style of riding other than dirt since then, 2 years and a couple months ago. Well Friday, for the first time ever, I got my knee down. Actually got it down twice within a few turns. Both times it was my right knee. Just figured I would share since it has been a goal of mine since I started riding and am still pretty proud of it.

I'm not suprised. Your skill and confidence has grown. And the right side is typical of a street rider. I trust the right handers more since your leaning away from traffic and can usually be more aggressive from entrance to the apex. Good show!

I'm much better at rights than left.

I am weird. I feel more comfortable going left because of the way that my right wrist is angled on right handers. I guess rights are better for me in the end though, lol.

I spent so much time on counterclockwise tracks that I thought I was too. Even thought I did not descriminate on the streets but my tires tell a different tale. My front shows a definite preference for right handers in lack of strip and edge wear and the left rear shows heavy accel abuse from a point n shoot type of line. I must be riding the lefts and right different from the evidence...

I can't get off of the bike as far to the rights, which may be the reason the tire is a little further down on that side.

Both times I've crashed have been left handers.
