I guess what I need to take from this for the TD riding going forward is to keep low, and just pop up over the screen, keep arms flat and don't be...
At this point, what % of breaking is being achieved buy being sat up 12" and what % the Brembo's? Check the forearms, dead flat. [ATTACH]
Agree, bet it makes very little difference.
Go to the kitchen, hands on worktop facing worktop, stand so your arms are at a 45 deg angle and have someone push you from behind. Then lower...
Ok, my point I guess is most us mere mortals pop-up WAY to much and I think it's survival instincts and 'cos we saw Foggy do it on telly. Watch...

Now i know how all great thinkers have felt over the years!

Watch how much a GP rider pops up. I bet if you watched GP classic from 15 yrs back they sat up loads more. I reckon it's as much survival...
