Well get over the homo eroticism of it - some of us are comfortable in our own skin - or are at least enthusuiastic enough about it to get past the fact that it may be ghey.. Call it the "concentration state" if you want something less ghey...
I appreciate what you are saying, thnking that you have it all under control when you may not be thinking about something. but when I refer to the concentration state, it si more about the state of extreme absorbtion in your concentration, rather than the specifics of what you are fociussing on. Clearly the more experienced that you are, the more you will know to focus on.
Kind of like a golfer,starts off not even knowing what isaffecting their swing, but if they can get their ficus working, they can do those well. Over time, they add awareness of more things to focus on, and manage to control focus on all simultaneously.
Out of interest, what sort of other stuff in the line of "multitude of other issues" would you be talking about? Thsi would be useful and good for safety. I try to be aware of everything from
- braking/transition technique
- surroundings,
- road surface awarenes (disrepair, elevation, camber and radius changes),
- other road users,
- lighting,
- body positioning,
- speed,
- weather,
- bike/tyre/grip awareness
got any others? then I can start trying to be aware of those too.
Crap on the road, or a cone (for eg) may mean there is loose stock ahead.
This time of year, sunstrike and deep shadow hiding damp/moss is a real concern
Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?
There are some who'd say so...![]()

Don't encourage him. Seriously. He is that ridiculous.
Why don't deluded idiots who feel that they know what is best for everyone else, just mind their own f*cking business.
How would they like it if other people started interfering in their family and business lives on a daily basis by telling them how to raise their kids and run their businesses the politically correct way (when neither the business or family desire or see a need for it). The answer is that they wouldn't like it a bit, but they are so hypocritical that they can't see how unacceptable their ideas are to others. Personally I see there meddlesome attitudes as being the highest form of arrogance. IMO the world could do without them.
Political correctness: a doctrine which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd from the clean end.
FFS. How hard is it to understand? We all know that motorcycling is dangerous. That can be, and is, part of it's appeal. However...
It is up to riders to manage those risks well enough that the ultimate dangers are minimised. It is now more than apparent that TPTB are making moves to manage those risks on our behalf, because we won't. The measures 'they' take will not be popular with bikers./
The message is "Manage yourself or we will."
