    I'm kinda confused about the counter steer method. Pulling on the right bar makes you lean left while turning? Huh?

    Alex and Dave, check this out. Excellent book for you guys to read about riding on two wheels. Title: A twist of the wrist. Author: Kieth Code. I read it back years ago when i was into it heavy. Got alot out of it

    Kinda the same thing . Just go to a big empty parking lot . And do figure 8s get used to the bike and its weight at slow speeds . Not sure if figure 8s are on the test in mass but in nh I had to go through a cone section that was pretty tight . Can't stop or put your feet down . Don't worry about counter steer right now . Just focus on the basics .

    Been riding dirt since I was 8. Started doing trails around 13. Started enduro riding at 18. I've got the maneuvering down solid. In the rough trails, balance controlled by clutch control and throttle is how I go stupid slow on odd terrain. The street is easy besides looking out for idiots and staying away from my enemies....Semis

    Think about this. Any bike even a pedal bike. Pull up right you'll lean left and corner. You're thinking to much, don't do this. Get on the bike in a big lot and ride. It's hard to say this to someone with not much experience

    Definitely not a beginner read. It's more race oriented. You'll like
