Easy fix - different bike.

As Grifo mentioned STT does 2 up.

This is me in malibu canyon, just after I lowsided!  

edit.

why don't you guys take this one to PMs, please.

That's a great idea.

I'd hate to see this locked and everyone else lose out.

be that as it may, those parties need to remove their posts, yours included. Perhaps some of the discrepancies could be resolved with pointed questions in the applicable specific forum (example: the suspension preload question, a common misunderstanding among even experienced riders as to what it can remedy and what it cannot).  This would need to be done without the name calling, or even party names really.

Back on track, I just found this picture of Brad Hendry:

ELBOWS!

carry on with the cool pics, everyone.    If anyone wants to discuss my edits in the thread, please PM me and I'll be happy to discuss.

Thanks Statler and Ducpainter for not locking this thread.   

Is that guy dragging an elbow because he is freaking massive or is the bike that leaned over?

I think its a little of both.

The bike looks to be holding the bare edge of its tire, and he's got his head a good 6 inches or so to the inside of the centerline of the bike. Having the elbow down is just a consequence of that much lean.

I also believe that that pic is taken at the Corkscrew at Laguna Seca, where normal rules of "gravity," "traction," and "testicular fortitude" mean almost nothing at all.

According to this news article that's from Miller:

Still an amazing shot!
