I won't hold my breath though... I think you all have difficulty accepting anything outside your personal spher....... oh well, you get it... |

Why don't you acknowledge that I posted last night that you all are partially right... Second... My exasperation with you all ignoring the google link I posted or you just looking at all those bikes turning with the tire turned toward the radius, and lying saying they are countersteering just because you can't take being wrong... |

No offense Scott but I stopped thoroughly reading your posts on this subject after about the 5th or 6th one that just kept repeating the same thing. Your riding and styles don't apply to everyone. I don't steer a bike with the back tire, nor do I go airborne, pull wheelies or am focused on saving a tenth of a second through a turn. The discussion basically started with a comment about counter-steering in very general terms. |

The discussion basically started with a comment about counter-steering in very general terms. OK, I get it but still... You don't counter steer your bike through a corner... You may bump the opposite side to get that little sway street bikes like... But like us, you could simply start to lean to the turn and the front end would follow. I am the one who has crossed over here and "learned" by reading.. I see why you do it, I "feel" the motion cause I have been there before, but still.. You on your street bike, and me on my MX bike, can make a left turn without ever "pushing" the left bar forward of the right bar.... |

All I am saying is, of the three of us, I am the only one who has substantial hours on both street and dirt bikes... maybe you give a "bit" of deference to that remembering that (and you have to stipulate to this) that I have trained one of the most technically accurate riders in the NE... And Jess and I card is quickly being filled for training young riders this summer based on what folks see my rider do.... Again, I will stipulate that you can indeed start a turn with a countersteer but you don't have to. But still, once you are in the corner both street and mx, you are not countersteering... |

Just about the time the software gets stable, they release another version. That is why I still run XP |
