You can also see riders do this in MotoGP. 40secs is a good example, leg off the tank, rear wheel barely touching the ground due to braking so hard, rider still locked on the bike

Link to original page on YouTube.

I worded it wrong but i never really lose grip with the tank, or get my balls racked. i'm basically grip the tank for the inital bite of the brakes, and then reposition my body when the deceleration levels off.

it could be several thing effecting the rider, body positioning, posture, tank grip, bike angle.

the good thing about going to a track is your can film your self going around a corner, and figure out whats happening. then concentrate to eliminate your problems. its something i need to do soon
