    If it's safe to do it, why the fuck not? If you've got clear vision ahead it's no more dangerous than being on the left side.

    Because its more fun to ride the whole S bend than straighten it.One day we hassle the council for taking bends out of our roads and the next we take them out by straightening corners.I say more fun ride the corner while its still there to ride.

    cause there is no need to cross the centre line just for the hell of it, so your just one of those fuckwits that everyone on here has a bitch about for riding like a cock sucker, but its ok to cross the centre line if your doing it but not if someone else does it..?? hahaha such a homo,

    and we all know how awesome vt's are.. but i dont ride one of them anymore so maybe its time for some new mane calling..

    It can become a bad habit, and if you get it wrong, it can actually make the cornering harder. Far too many also take into account an oncoming speed of a car, and not a sportsbike howling along. Why make your ride more dangerous than it needs to be?

    Why go out there to enjoy the corners, but spend your time cutting them or straightening them out? It's never made any sense to me...

    Or if you've failed to realise that another vehicle (bike) is trying to overtake you on that corner.

    Have to agree with the above.
    But, crossing the centreline while having full view is in my mind perfectly fine.

    Not everyone wants to get max lean angle when they can straighten it out (I don't cross the centreline in corners, just to clarify, but I don't because I like corners)

    I don't, ruins the corner. I'd rather lean harder than 'straight line' corners. Each to their own though. (BTW, I'm sure you could lean a bike lot harder than I could so I'm not suggesting anything.)

    I guess it all depends on what pace you're doing etc etc as well. Sometimes, to me, it's pointless taxing everything if you don't have to.

    I certainly wouldn't have been doing what motard scrotbag was as far as cutting things up though. His lines were shite, as was his riding.

    So conclusion is he likes the lean angles due to the way he was riding so straightening corners for him was pointless.Also arnt the riders who dont like to lean more likely to be traveling at a speed that they could take corners on their own side of road.
    It looks like at the speeds he was doing if he found himself needing to use only his own side he may not have made some of those esses.

    You just cant trust someone with a orange front tyre.Thats just crazy shitz buying tyres that arnt black.

    Some might have taken my comment that way. I just wanted it clear that I wasn't suggesting that.
