Countersteering
Hi. For anyone confused about countersteering, check out this short video. I found it very informative and helpful:

Re: Countersteering
A very well done video that demonstrates counter steering. An absolute must see for anyone having trouble with curves and cornering. And of course the rider also demonstrates the fact that the bike will normally return to an upright position of it's own volition. The wheels act as gyroscopes to keep the bike upright. Counter steering is a skill all riders must have to enjoy the ride and be safe.
The rider/demonstrator is a very capable rider. Smooth movements, gear shifts and is very comfortable on 2 wheels. He has the ability to narrate all his riding with hardly any hesitation or second thoughts. |
