Maybe a less shitty picture would help.

You definitely should. It's pretty awesome. Not the Smokies but pretty darn close.

Another implies that you actually own one in the first place. But you really should, the secret Saturday runs are pretty epic and right up your alley. -
I agree, it might be an early spring. Just need to ditch the salt. However we may still get creamed up here, the lake isn't going to freeze and those asshat Canadians may send a blast of dry cold air across the lake at us.

We can do that. Paging @DerekClouser I have access to a drone also. So, when we get you up to speed, your test needs to be a turn to the left. You have it set now so you can't turn the wheel right...that is the direction you would turn the wheel if you were counter steering to go left. I suggest you use your motorcycle helmet when we do this.

Yea, we need a big hill. I hit low 50's on a bicycle once. He can do it!
-
I am still in shock you did this. You totally won the internet today.
-
Wow, that is pretty epic. I think we need you to go faster though....before the counter steer is really in play. Any really big hills nearby?
-
We could easily hit this on our typical Saturday.

That's what you said about last Saturday.

If you want silly, how about going to a damn track day when you don't own a damn bike.

Bonus points if you look at the camera and say 'Hold my beer' before you start.

Fair enough, I rescinded my negative vote.

I down voted Tim's since he couldn't get the gif to work.

Be sure to video this.

LOL, I forgot about that. Yea I did that too.
-
Oh it sucks, and is hard as hell. Cops for sure would have lit me up for a suspected DUI if they saw me.

A while back there was a giant thread about how you can't steer a bike with just a lean. I stayed out of it, people were going ape shit. Instead on the way home from work I got on the turnpike at 147, set the cruise at 80 and drove all the way to 170 where I get off. I stayed in my lane, went around corners and changed lanes and never once touched my handle bars.

Just to clarify, what are you asking when you say 'how many of you actually use counter-steering'. Cuz I am pretty damn certain we all do since it's the only way to steer a bike at speed. Don't say it Tonik...don't say it Tonik....quick someone ban me before I go for the obvious joke here.
