[QUOTE="AJ Waggoner, post: 99120, member: 16665"] FC - I think the bar position and seat thing should be the ticket for the lower back starain and things youve mentioned. As far as gripping the bike with your knees..I'd have to say I consider it the most important thing..but thats a MX standpoint. It allows you to use MUCH less upper body strenght and overall less energy . Its how a 135 pound flea can ride a CR500 for hours without tiring. Almost any riding technique book will stress this. I guarantee you RC and MC use it, but in cornering it just the OUTSIDE knee pushin the shroud towards the ground,try it and you wil feel the bike grip better. Obviuosly there are many situations you should be loose on the bike as well. and in Trials and enduro situiuations with large rocks and slow cornering over tight obsticles "Loosekneed" is a the way to go. The more you ride the more youll learn where to applly which technique. [/QUOTE]
