You can get a 600-650 as a first bike. It would be recommended to be a V engine, as they deliver less HP than in-lines, but they are more torquey.

counter steering is left for people who know how to ride all ready , its for fast corners and bigger cc bikes . its called “off tracking” meaning the front tire travels a different path than the rear tire.

Yes, actually, I do have a bike. It’s countersteering because you’re turning the wheel in the opposite direction you’re trying to lean. learn some physics then talk.

No, it’s push left turn left. Push your left hand forward, turns the wheel right, leans the bike left.

Push right, turn right. Push your right hand forward to turn your wheel left, making you lean right.

It’s extremely counter intuitive.

To recap:
Push Left, Turn Left.
Push Right, Turn Right.

i think you’re explaining it wrong.

you actually ARE turning the handlebar in the opposite direction for a SLIGHT moment.

so if you want to turn LEFT, you push FORWARD (really slightly) on the left side of the handlebar … thus, the wheel actually turns to the right slightly, JUST ENOUGH to put the bike off the straight axis and thus leans to the left. then, automatically as it leans to the left slightly, then the rest follows and you actually turn left.

Try breaking i a corner. The bike will raise it self in a upright position. This is a very typical way of getting in trouble on the highway and ending up in the gutter or worse.
Typical examples on this are you are cutting the curve too early, a other vehicle are in your predicted curve.
Countersteering will do the trick in these cases.

Sorry but this is wrong counter steering is as follows – You are approaching a left hander for example and lean to the left, leaning alone will not get you round so by leaning to the left AND STEERING to the RIGHT the bike is forced in a tighter LEFT curve.. Hence the name counter steering.
