Im quite good at understanding things... kinda worked it out tbh
![]() ![]() I dont often do it consciously, I can lean fast enough without forcing the bike to do it, though im a pretty strong little git so maybe im putting in a lot of effort of the bat?, and dont need to think about it... |

My understanding of this dark art is this---
We all counter steer all the time or the bike would not go round corners and we would fall off. Active counter steering is a much more positive and deliberate push on the bars to make it happen far quicker than just riding without thinking about it.Just more of the same really.

If he had been taught Active Counter Steering on his CBT this would not have happened. |

Thing it with Active Counter Steering if does make the bike change direction very quickly. I had enough to cope with on my CBT with just working out what on earth was going on let alone trying to get my head round physics and gyroscopic forces at work. I really dont think I would have taken it in. I taught myself it in the end...

The thing with a CBT is that a lot of the people (not all) doing them have never even touched a bike before.
If you try to teach them too much its not going to do them any good to start with. |

I'm also guessing that your bike handles a damn sight better than a scooter too... |

The pont is at 16 and 17 years of age, you have not developed the road skills you need to survive, especially on a bike or moped. Surely teaching this skill will stop inexperienced riders from getting in this type of situation in the first place. |
