No, I watched it and I thought it was cool. But, it contributes nothing on the subject of counter-steering.
That is why I do not think you are credible. Its like when you said that "gravity" was the cause of my crash. You just do not pay enough attention to detail.
And you can't comment on it because that video contradicts many other things you said in this thread. You ignore any evidence which does not support your view.
And once again, I said that "keith needs to read more and ride less".
OMG!!! Anyone that posts on this useless thread from this post onward is no longer my friend. You should all be ashamed of yourselves.
Ha ha...dang, I found this funny.

I decided to see if I can throw my weight to turn the dirtbike, while I was shifting around I was also pulling the opposite bar in. I never thought I did. But I do. I'm going to write a book like "everybody poops" for kids, but call it "everybody counter steers"
There is no "should" about it...we all DO counter-steer. Physics makes us do it, if we ride on two wheels above a very slow speed. I'm not arguing with you, just emphasizing part of your post.

Your're wrong, you're wrong and you're just wrong. But go right on ahead and ignore people who know better....it makes you look really credible.

You know MikerR1 has got to be laughing his *** off...having never thought he could keep us all onboard this long. Its become something more than just a thread. It's just to entertaining to see what he'll come up with next after pages of using one example or illustration, moving to the next. But he won't go out and ride, to test his theories against ours.

Any time you want to witness my riding skills in action, you just name the time and place, and we can go for a ride together. That would be fun for me.
BTW, gravity was 100% responsible for your bike going down.

Not at all. The video is a great example of centripetal force at work. But, it has nothing to do with counter-steering, obvious to anyone who knows what counter-steering is.

If you think gravity was the cause of my crash then that just one more reason not to listen to you. If I had listened to you I would have crashed again.
The video contains a huge amount of information for someone who pays attention to detail.
