2. To get my knee down without falling off.
road or track?
If road, why? But if you insist, IMH limited ability it's actually easier to do it at slow speed on the road. The key is to set ya self up before the corner. Get the ball of ya foot on the edge of the peg, get at least one arse cheek off the seat (arse and a half if on the barge :} ), stick knee out (helps I guess:} ), drop the shoulder, head up looking through the corner, RELAX & remember to breathe (this is key!), tip in gradually & bingo.
Don't try to force ya knee down/out as this is counter productive.
If ya want lessons my rates are very reasonable and my success rate is 100% :} (that's 1 out of 1)
If on track, it comes naturally or apply the above plus throttle
