You steer a bike with counter-steering Expand Keith Code coined that niche phrase in the 80's and heralded it as some amazing breakthrough. Made millions out of it too! But the reality is that we ALWAYS did it subconsciously......it was a natural thing to do. If we hadn't, we'd have all gone out on our bikes and just kept going in a straight line. So he took what was a natural subconscious reaction and turned it into a conscious reaction (meaning you now had to think about it). If you doubt what I'm saying, how was Kenny able to ride like this back in the 70's......prior to the "discovery" of counter steering? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slowlycatchymonkey Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 Went out for breakfast cos the weather forecast is absolutely rubbish for the next few days and the schools break up so traffic volume is predicted to be some of the worse on record Didn’t really want to go out but once out it was glorious. The breakfast was really good, doesn’t look it but the bacon was very good, the egg was perfect and the hash browns tasted freshly fried because they were super crispy and it was all HOT. Even the tea wasn’t stewed. Nice car park shot for Pedders as I remember him saying he doesn’t like nice scenery Mr Slowly said wotcha doing? I reply taking a couple of pics for the forum cos they never stop banging on about photo’s, say hi, anyway I think he gets the forum cos you got a two fingered salute 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Yes it does, takes a bit of getting used to. Today some over excited teens saw it and started shouting and jumping up n down giving a thumbs up and lots of old’uns can’t stop looking at it, I don’t think they can figure out if it’s old or new cos they look both happy and confused Enjoyed ride back cos I shoed Andrew on (no point taking out the Livewire if you’re not going to enjoy it) and got tangled up racing an old duffer up the A38. Fair play to the old git he had some moves on him but ultimately he ate dust mwahhahahaa. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Yeah I don't notice it on the road so it is trivial, it's at 70mph revs around 4k rpm and when I say there's a flat spot it's still making 100ftlb or so at the flat spot so it's not a small amount 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
