Still looking forward to being on that list..

Probably, that 45 years of riding is one of the reasons that you can't understand it. You know the old saying "cant teach an old dog new tricks.

I did not know you had 45 years on the bike. I can see there is no hope in changing your mind. I am not going to spar with you any more. I don't want to waste your time or my time.

Here is my question. What do they mean by press? Do they mean press the left bar DOWN or press the left bar FORWARD? .

No I have not lost all credibility.
I am not depending upon them for anything. I know how to figure things out for myself, I rather enjoy it.

OK - So why didn't you figure it out, without asking?

If you wanted to turn left . How would you counter steer this axle? I think by pulling up.

To further my point: There's always hope that my mind can be changed. Just not by you and your current line of "reasoning". You need to prove your point first. So far you haven't done that, either in my mind or, apparently, in the mind of numerous posters here. And you probably won't, either.
