I hesitate to correct a senior VOC figure such as ET43, but see my post. And Nulli's. We've all scraped a footrest, and scraping a knee just needs more speed,
in order to lean in more, and a bit more athleticism. I asked Mark about the shoot, and Rupert Paul the editor. Why would they fake it, if a good rider - like
Mark - can do more impressive things on bigger, more powerful bikes? I think Classic Bike reproduced it, but it was certainly in Performance Bikes originally.
Hats off to him, I say.
