    Yeah, front brakes tend to stand the bike up, rear brakes tend to pull it round the corner. Rule one: don't over cook the corner. Rule 2: If you do, and you will, a BIT of rear will help pull you round the corner. Also, raise your eyes to where you want to go - as far round the corner as you can see. You tend to end up where you look so don't look at the metal at the side of the road and don't look down!

    The one thing I've learn't over the years is just when you think your 10 foot tall and bullet proof is when you discover you aren't!
    Exert your talents, and distinguish yourself, and don't think of retiring from the world, until the world will be sorry that you retire. -Samuel Johnson

    Most important advice of all time, take all advice with a grain of salt.

    Don't take as gospel any advice from anyone you would not pillion with.
