MMP 07: Why understanding countersteering is so important

The Motorcycle Mentor Podcast - Un pódcast de David Mixson

Categorías:

In this session of the Motorcycle Mentor Podcast, I discuss countersteering and explain why I think it is one of the most important things you should understand… regardless of whether you are a beginner or experienced rider. Countersteering is how you control your motorcycle: push right to go right, push left to go left. But pushing on the right bar is actually the same as pulling on the left bar… which means to initiate a right turn you turn the handlebar in the opposite direction. Sound confusing? More specifically, in this session you’ll find out about: My first trip to Deals Gap. What is countersteering — my simple definition. Why understanding countersteering with your head is so important. Why there is so much passionate debate about the physics of countersteering. Why I think having countersteering part of your muscle memory can significantly increase your abilities to avoid an accident.
