I have one of these near me, I have been out hitting up that turn alot lately just to practice at it, I still have not mastered it yet, I have gotten alot better, but I know theres still gotta be a better way to take this curve. I am a little better going down this steep 180 degree turn than up, the recommended speed is 10 mph in a car.No Worries said:
Counter steering experiments
Ive been overcoming intuition and purposely inducing counter steer. Turning left and pulling on the right grip took some talking myself into, but now i am getting better at controlling it. Started with a few little tugs in sweepers and low speed swerving. The bike just wants to "fall" in a good way. feels like momentum vs gyroscopic force vs traction 
. Im starting to understand what makes those racers so fast. I did notice once i recognised it, i did it more than i thought. I can feel leaned over that i do pull on the opposite bar alot. Perhaps another good reason to hang off the bike. But i find it most useful at turn in. Brake later and turn in faster. This is a skill i deffinately want to improve, ive gotten faster already. Anyone mastered countersteering? Tips and tricks are welcome.
