How not to lean in corners - Instructional Video

John451 · 10-04-2007, 10:25 AM

Stumbled onto this Vid which teaches us how leaning to the outside will unnecessarily increase the bikes lean angle at any given speed.

I'm betting he is no longer with us... dead; the only thing you get driving like that is... dead.

well the gist of the second video was 2 guys riding buells(?) weaving in and out of traffic, passing on the right. Leaning wrong on a turn and crossing through! oncoming traffic then crossing back and flipping everyone off. It looked like he may have even been clipped by a car when he crossed. Not sure as I couldn't watch more than once because I kept thinkin how far the stories about these two idiots would go to ruining the rep of motorcyclists everywhere.

Is the writing on the road even english?

NeverlosT · 10-05-2007, 11:57 AM

haha in that case i guess I am glad the navy blocked the vid, cause I get mad watching morons pull that stuff.

my girlfriend was scared for me riding my bike last week because some a$$hat on a sportbike passed over a double yellow heading towards her and she almost hit him. It is hard to explain that the sport is much less dangerous if one isnt a total MORON.

So let me get this right....you're supposed to lean WITH every bike except Buells, which are used to clean out ditches? and for grill emblems on cages, right?
