I passed my CBT here the other week, first time riding a geared motorcycle but road bicycles as much as 300 miles per week well into adulthood. Loved every minute of our 2+ hours on the road test, half on winding country roads, had to swerve a couple of times to avoid stuff in the road, we had some bad storms recently. All that comes naturally from riding bicycles, the eyes lead the head, leads the body, leads the arms hands and legs. All connected. I still need confidence though to ride like a bicycle at low speed, just too worried about dropping the bike in tight low speed turns so I am bolt upright pushing the bars like hell going round tight bends really slow. Hopefully that bit will come, at least it's relatively safe just annoying for anyone behind.

@acrimonioushate 5 жыл бұрын

Donivan Morris One thing for sure, never grab the brakes 100% because it will cause the disc locked and you cant control your bike in that situation. The brakes are meant to slow you down by stopping the wheel (not the bike). Now the usage of front and rear brake is depend on your speed and track conditions. Lets assume that the track is aspalt in dry conditions. Your speed is 50km+, first you have to release the throttle, grab the front brakes 90% (your bike will slow down to +-20km) then followed by 90% rear brake, youre going to stop immediately. You can try the rear brake first but it will take longer and farther to stop.

You have to remember that, unlike a car, you're actually riding on an inverted pendulum. Imagine yourself balancing a broom with one hand. If you want to make it go left, you don't move your hand to the left. The tip would just be left behind and fall to the opposite side. So, you first have to make the broom *lean* left, and to do that you move your hand underneath it to the right,. Once it starts to fall to the opposite side, you "follow" it at the base. It's the same on a motorcycle. To go left, you first have to move the wheels underneath it to the right. You do that by steering to the right. That will make the bike "fall" to the left. Once it's falling, now you can "control" the fall by counteracting it with speed and steering as you go around the corner.

@cakeadventure8412 Жыл бұрын

For those wondering how this works, its mainly because of inertia! So as Dave said when you are above 10-15mph and move to handlebars to the right, lets say, the bike actually does move the right (Very slightly) but your body stays relatively still. This causes your center of gravity to shift to the left side of the bike meaning the bike now wants to go left. I hope this makes it more clear about the science behind his demonstration, its very cool how it works!

@sepro5135 Жыл бұрын

I think the mechanism is a bit different. The offset of the Centre of gravity would not be enough to have a significant result. If the front wheel is turned right however, there is a gyroscopic effect that forces the bike to lean left, which is strong, but dependent on the speed the wheels spin at, hence it doesn’t work at slow speed. With your explanation, countersteering would be almost exactly as effective at slow speeds

@alchercraft7014 Жыл бұрын

So if your body in neutral way and want to turn left and you pull the left handlebar do you fall from it or its just going to go to the left, i still don't understand yet cause i have no bike yet anybody can explain it is it necessary or not because what i trying to understand and knowing is if you want to turn left or right on above 15mph can you still push it to the direction we want to go without the counter steer?

mumbo-jumbo science-rocket notes: counter steering works for two reasons: 1) push left bar forward, front wheel points right and rolls out from under bike's balance point, and bike falls left (that is, it leans left immediately), so the bike turns left because of the lean. this is the main reason counter steering works, accounting for 85% to 90% of the effect. 2) newton's second law (F=mA, force equals mass times acceleration) applied to rotation (or t=I.alpha, torque equals moment of inertia times angular acceleration). this torque effect is often cited first by us science rockets with our fancy-pants educations, but it is typically just a 10-15% effect. but, ahem, regardless all the effects and their relative importance, the theory is useless in a split-second decision (like in that bike-vs-firetruck video that made you jump out of your chair). you don't have time to think or work out the theory in a split second. what you need is muscle memory from shit-tons of practice. so get off your computer and go counter steer, counter steer, counter steer until you do it in your sleep. (finally, for the super geeky, in mumbo-jumbo science-rocket terminology, the 1st effect is called a holonomic constraint, i.e., the contact patch of the front tire is determined by its position relative to the pavement over time, assuming you don't skid while executing this maneuver.)

Well you can, but most cyclists don't. I disagree with the OP regarding counter-steer. Counter-steer is very obvious if you keep the bike/motorcycle straight up with no lean to either side. No argument there. But as far as bike riders go, you enter a turn leaning and fraction of a second later turning.into the direction of the turn. There is zero counter steer.

@JPLAVA1955 6 жыл бұрын

If you are leaning and then steering into the turn you're doing it wrong. If you don't believe it, just try avoiding something in the road by steering quick and hard into the direction you're turning. You'll see the bike wants to stand up and go the wrong way.....At least try what he says, you'll see it works much better than what you're doing now.

@RoadKing05FLHR 6 жыл бұрын

Lehmann Peters it depends on the speed your traveling. Bicycles are the same as motorcycles. The front wheel does not slide sideways. If you turn the handlebars to the right what your doing besides pointing the front tire right, your shifting the neck of the frame left of center. That's what makes the bike lean. Not you physically leaning. You can push against the side of the neck while leaning which also forces the front tire the opposite way slightly causing the bike to lean. Otherwise leaning your weight to the left only makes the bike lean right without turning the wheel. COG will equalize when your going straight ahead.

I’m about to get my first bike so I’ve been reading, watching, and soaking up every bit of knowledge I can to help get started practicing, and hopefully learn things fairly quickly. The idea of counter steering was so confusing to me. I’ve seen several videos and read about it, but the videos were either underwhelming in explanation or just talk and no demonstration. Your video and demonstrations of both using normal steering at low speeds, and then using counter steering around 10-12 mph has really simplified counter steering in my brain. Now I can’t wait to get my bike, hit an open parking lot, and test out everything I’ve learned. Thank you!

I got on a trike (converted bike) a few years back, never having ridden one before, after decades of bikes, didn't think about the fact that it wasn't remotely like riding a bike. Rode in a straight line across the lot we were in and had to get through a gate - I nearly smashed into the gate-post at 30MPH because I reflexively counter-steered ...... and counter-steered, and counter-steered for several seconds, my muscle-memory just didn't get why the f***ing thing was going the opposite way I wanted it to.

I had counter steering explained to me this way: “If you want to turn your bike, you must tilt the bike. In order to tilt the bike off-centre you must counter steer. To turn left, push left. To turn right, push right.”. All was clear after that. Good vid. Leaning will never take the place of counter steering.

@mattf2535 4 жыл бұрын

C. R. M. Yeah, once you get comfy pushing the bars to the direction that you need your bike to go, you can transition to tilting the bike by dipping your knee down for sharper corners like turns at intersections. Precise CS is esp needed for higher speed highway turns & curves. It's all a weird but fun concept. Thats why motorcycling is so much fun.

Were you just going less than 20 km/h before this?? Countersteering is the ONLY way of steering a 2 wheeled vehicle. Countersteering isn't some sort of 'technique' to turn effectively, it's the ONLY way of turning. If you've been riding faster than a human sprinting speed, then you have used countersteering. I really don't understand how it's a mystery to some people.
