And thats the way the revs rise just a bit when you tip it on its ear into a bend. I've not noticed over winter with the shit grip meaning small lean angles, but now the weather and grip have come back and I've noticed it again.

I've never actually noticed it myself (not looked for it really), but the revs rise because the diameter of the tyre is smaller when you're on the side.

You should be getting on the power constantly around a corner anyway, really.

Just remember the price of over cooking it is far greater than the price of under cooking it.

And if your gonna do it leave it for the right handers. Ending up in a farmers field is better then ending up being tweezered out of an 18 wheelers grill one bit at a time.

Thumbs Up

I've never noticed that either. Does it do it more on left-handers Col? Wink

[edit] Won't going wide on a left hander leave you more likely to hit oncoming traffic?
