fivebrick Posted May 29, 2015 Report Share Posted May 29, 2015 I was coached to keep the feet straight ahead on the pegs. Having the heels in and brushing up against the swingarm was discouraged. The paint on the swingarm being rubbed off was especially bad! Anybody have any ideas on this. This was at TTC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael_t Posted May 29, 2015 Report Share Posted May 29, 2015 (edited) Ryan says keep your foot an inch or 2 from the frame... Why would you want to pull your heels in wouldn't it place your toe away from the rear brake? Edited May 29, 2015 by michael_t Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully they taught you to turn with your feet too! Luckily I`m naturally bowlegged. ( Or is that from 44 years of proper turning?) This bloke inspired my knee out position.
