Could you have avoided this?

Fuck, I thought that was a dude.

The trick, dude, is to not write things that are wrong and post them on the internet in the first place.

Nothing I have said is wrong. If I have to explain the meaning of Plain English sentences, it is because I overestimated how much you had applied your mind to it in the first place.

So do you reckon that weight steering will be enough for you in a chicane?

100% yes it will.

[Ocean1]

100% yes it will.

You goda admit that's a power of weight to be flinging around a motorcycle, though.

No doubt. In his haste though, the question asker failed to mention how tight the chicane was, or how fast the bike would be travelling.

[R-Soul]

100% yes it will.

And you'd be wrong.

My response referred to slow speed, open chicane. Since you were too retarded to consider adding perameters to the question, you are wrong. Go away, fuck-tard!

I thought that the technical term for those was 'wide open S bend' . . .

It pays not to get technical on KB, some munter like me comes along and picks holes in it all.

Using nothing but your body weight, you can turn a motorcycle. Trying to say you cannot is just retarded.

That bike with the bars fixed is probably fuckin hard to get your head around, because you're hangin onto a set of bars, but will turn with body weight and throttle use.

Chris Pfiefer can go from lock to lock in about 2 meters with his hands off the bars, rolling round tight circles and figure '8's.

You might , I prefer to help it along by using the bars

Not really a fair example. I doubt that very many riders can do the sort of stuff he manages even using the bars


I'd not argue with the view that it's possible or achievable to use body weight to steer. However, I'd say that many riders who think they do it don't, and for most riders if they want quick, immediate and accurate steering, they're better off using the bars.

losers they may have been, heroes they were especially the last, give up they did not, back down they did not. Your problem is?

I don't have a problem ... they all died ... that's not my problem, and that's losers ..

Amundsun made it there AND back ... that's a hero ... he got there first and he got back alive ...

WHAT??? dying heroically makes good role models ??? Get real ...
