PICTURE: Pedrosa on the attack. Weighing in at just 51kg means Dani Pedrosa has to lean as far as possible from his Repsol Honda to 'lever' it through the high-speed turns, as illustrated by this shot from qualifying at Le Mans last weekend. » Read The Full Story
1 people agree. Poor Dani, he never gets rid of people talking about his weight Some great sideways pictures in there though, especially in high resolution. Posted by The Morgue (142 days ago) Last Edited 142 days ago
7 people agree. 5 people disagree. He's perfect just the way he is Posted by LittleL - Unregistered (142 days ago)
you want to see lean??? some guys having fun 3xw.fasterandfaster.net/2007_09_09_archive.html Posted by RR75 RR75 (141 days ago)
1 people disagree. Leverage is force x distance. Dani ain't got the force, but he's sure got the distance in that picture! Posted by Team Green (141 days ago)
3 people agree. Correct me if i'm wrong but wouldn't some countersteering do the same thing? Technically you can lean a bike all the way over and not have to get off your seat. Maybe this is just his style? Posted by Rob Heyde (141 days ago)
Dani is simply the best!! Posted by le star - Unregistered (141 days ago)

More like 2nd Best. Lets see at the end of the year if he is the best Posted by Saran Dorairaj - Unregistered (140 days ago)
You don't have to be worldchampion to be the best! But he will be I'm sure... as LittleL said: 'He's perfect just the way he is' Posted by le star - Unregistered (140 days ago)
If you watch Dani closely you'll find he leans this way (dropping his shoulder down) out of most corners which allows the bike to stand up so he can put more power down. Posted by Tim Preston (139 days ago)
Mamola calls it "sitting it up onto the fat part of the tyre" for more traction out of corners. Counter-steering is to get you into the corner, the shot is of Dani powering out of one. Posted by terrazzo - Unregistered (139 days ago)
