    Yeah it will and for newbies this is an issue. Trouble is for the experienced rider who pushs to the limit in many cases, there is no more lean angle left in reserve if they are riding at or near the limit and then oh yeah, it becomes a major issue and the bonnet normally gets a good pounding.
    If the destination is more important than the journey you aint a biker.

    Statistically Katman, we will all eventually visit that place. If we can't steer, we can't choose, and if we can't choose - we die.

    [QUOTE=Patar;1760896]I know this is a public forum and everything, and it might just be me.
    But I don't see the point in starting a new thread in the wrong sub forum for:
    - Something that is pretty much common sense

    mate i was gonna put it under the survival skills but nobody reads it.
    I trust you corner better than most and dont need any advice. safe riding,
