That really is a good site. I've now read from end -to-end and have picked up heaps of useful info. Thatnks for the heads-up.

Yeah as dpex says "Thatnks for the heads-up."

Your right, Yod, it is a great site. But I have a question.

In one part they recommend one can increase turn-rate but pushing one's uter knee against the side of the bike.

For the life of me I cannot understand how the physics of this works yet, to my utter amazement, it does!

Can anyone explain how simply pressing one's knee against the outside of the bike can increase the turn-rate?

It's all BS. Everyone knows you steer by shifting your weight.

[yod]

i would assume it's ancreasing your lean angle?

[James Deuce]

Wedging your knee against the tank gives you a solid interface with the bike and means that leverage placed on the bars isn't wasted moving your body around as a reaction.
