I know I can count on some of you to carry the anti-troll torch from here. I truly hope you can stretch it out to 100 pages before it gets shut down.

Have a great weekend!

Have a good ride!

While I didn't quote it earlier, whether or not I am on any list or not is irrelevant. The larger point you missed is while they/we are ridiculing you now, you've managed to lose all credibility.
When you do have a valid concern or questions, I hope the CRICKETS will be able to answer.
People on this FORUM have never needed a list to remember.
BTW - Have you ever seen the correct technique to counter-steer a Dump Truck?
Who said I was ashamed of saying what I ride? I am not ashamed of what I ride in the least.

No I have not lost all credibility. There are some people that I know for a fact understand what I have said. I do not need them to jump into this trolls nest. In fact, those same people know, what I now know, and that is that most of the members in this forum DO NOT understand what is and what is not counter-steering.

You may have missed this, but a whole lot of your supposed "experts" really do not understand what is and what is not counter-steerig. Now they have to cover their butts. I am not depending upon them for anything. I know how to figure things out for myself, I rather enjoy it.

This guy has just been too evasive in talking about his own riding experience. Once pressed, he did say he owned a Harley. But that proves nothing.

And with that said, I wouldn't necessarily be ashamed to say I owned a Street, either. My local dealership's manager was trying to talk my wife into a Street 750 as a second bike (as a general runaround bike-she already has an Iron). She didn't ride it, but he zipped around on the parking lot a bit on it. It looked like a kick in the ***. Nimble and pretty darned snappy. And he's a big guy.
Why would I want to prove anything to you? You would not believe it anyway. You still do not know what is and what is not counter-steering. And I can tell from talking to you that you will never know.

This is way more fun than the welding I'm supposed to be doing on a "non counter steering " axle.

Gee, forty-five years of riding and I still don't know anything about it. What a failure I am..... "sniff"...

Oh, the shame.....

Still looking forward to being on that list..
