You see, this is just wrong. I've heard about the "no bull**** bike"... But I've ridden a converted-for-stunting Fazer thou that has lockable steering, and you can turn it. Not like a normal bike, and you're about a hair away from crashing all the time (you need to use the power to stop it from falling into turns, and to stand it back up, which is quite, quite mad) but it can be done.
Not that anyone does it on the street...

Yep and a few years ago there was a guy who actually demonstarted the fact to Andy Abbort and his responce was something along the lines of 'yeah but ...'
Cheers
