Can a Flat-Tread Motorcycle Turn? How Motorbikes Steer

These dynamics also apply to #bicycle riding, obviously.

It was cool seeing the California Superbike School that I attended back in 2022 being mentioned. :3 #motorcycle

Had an awesome time at the California Superbike Class I went to last weekend! While I was one of the bigger weenies on track as far as speed is concerned, I learned a lot of good handling skills for two wheels. The BMW S1000RR was pretty cool, too, aside from the maintenance alert coming up every time the bike was booted up. #motorcycle (Albums (59 photos total), 14 photos attached)

To get there, my dad and I did a road trip with an overnight stop halfway between home and Willows, CA, where this session was taking place.
