I'm more one for learning on the bike, but what I've found useful for knee down/body position:
- You are leaning off to keep the bike upright mid-corner, as big lean is dangerous
- Inside arm bent, outside arm straight
Having said that I personally won't try knee down on UK roads with our mouth-breather drivers. Like a lot of people say, doing track days calms you down on the road.

Now I have the car license, I’m inclined to get a minimoto (or midi if funds allow) and get myself to the gokart track one motorway junction away.

Honestly, I have greater desire to minimoto than to do a track day. Maybe it’s the clown-on-a-bike thing. Maybe it’s jealousy and regret than 15 years ago I didn’t get one cheap when I had the chance.

Can totally get that, I know a few people who have gone this route and thoroughly enjoy it.
