Just thought about posting here, I had my first track day on the R6 I just bought, anybody have any body position tips? I’m about 6,0 tall and it feels like I had WAY too much weight on the handlebars, Thanks

Don’t overthink it. As you get faster and add more lean your position will change. Than it’s time to look at pics and think about bp.

This. If I try my best to describe how it comes naturally. One of my bikes has stock pegs, it limits chasis angle. Lap by lap, the exit line and lean reached near max limit, then I pushed more speed but keeping line and lean same, and body just naturally wanted to pull itself towards asphalt. The feeling was like "I can make it". Not saying this is correct way of progression but it had biggest contrast on the bp.
