Default Re: Decent article about countersteering

I have read countless countersteering threads, so I get a bit pedantic about it. Gyroscopic forces have nothing to do with countersteering. As for the throttle balancing the bike's wish to fall up or down, I think that's tosh too, it's what you do with the steering that determines it, the action of the throttle/brakes is there but it's not the main thing. Try this which seems to come at it from all angles:
