Cornering Styles Part II

I had previously explained on the conventional and unorthodox cornering styles (acccidently deleted). The pictures below are worth much more than my explanation.

The conventional way (not my style)

This is a pic of Valentino Rossi. Head and body leaning inside the corner.

The unorthodox way (that's how I do it)

This is Troy Bayliss. Former WSB and British Champion. See how his body (and head) moving away from the inside of the corner.

Sorry bro. Not being a biker, the untrained eyes of mine can't see the difference. Care to elaborate?

Didn't know there was a difference pun.. hehe. But I guess I follow the conventional way. I always scare off my pillion rider by saying - when I tilt, u tilt. When I turn, u turn. If u don't, we sure crash one. That keeps them off my rear seat :)

I always wonder, tak jatuh ke you all buat macam tu? Kona baring habis!

F: You won't fall as long you know the dynamics and limits of both the bike and yourself.

If I can remember correctly, only the Sarron brothers (Dominic and Christian) and Loris Regianni can go lower..they can even scrape their elbows too.
