Lookie her:

Meant to type "Lookie here" .... anyway, the link describes gyroscopic
progression which is why JohnH was correct.


It took a long time to convince Motorcycle Safety Foundation students of
the same thing. The trick was to have them steer with one hand, then the
push right - go right idea begins to stick.


Take another look at that picture on the "lookee here" post.

See anything interesting?


If you are referring to the fact that the front tire seems to be pointing
to the right, yes. It is most likely because the driver has pushed the
right bar to get the bike upright or start a right turn.
