i experienced fishtail on the 1st day i got my bike on the way home, i was able to control it somehow n was shock when i look at my rear wheel swing one side while moving, machiam drifting, and a few other occasions... but after i chg my rear tyre, i have yet to experience anymore fishtail.... yet...

 

im glad i never really fish tailed before on my crap irc rear tire... only on one occasion braking from high speed (>100kmh) and less than 150m distance cos of red light camera... :cheeky:

 

i place emphasis on safe riding! and also awareness of bongtards in cages...

i didnt realise about counter steering until today... haha... very interesting... :)

 

from what i realised, you learn more about riding and improve faster when you go riding with buddies or with a group, learn thru chatting or exchanging pointers on riding. :thumb:

the effects of counter steering makes change of direction faster and easier and enables better entry into corners and bends!

i always believe in safe speeding, safe overtaking, safe lane change.

 

also got riders speed dangerously and overtake dangerously...

 

the keyword is judgement, how you judge traffic conditions and react accordingly... in a safe manner w/o endangering yourself or others.

this is what i term poor situational awareness....riding to me is like a mind game....decipher what is every road users intention, and also read the traffic ahead for alot more informations...

 

take a slow ride initially to let ur mind absorbs all the info, and digest it gradually, no point overload ur sensory and yet u cant do anything to the plethora of infos available to you....

 

 

read up on HOV Hazard orientation View...or read up on reading traffic

Go as far as you can see; when you get there, you'll be able to see farther.

Judgement....yes this is the correct word.....

 

to me there is no such thing as ride slow or fast you are safe, its the ability of judging the situation that is more impt, take example 2008 2 accidents on my X9, i stopped at red light traffic kena banged by trailer, bike nv dropped....few months later while negotiating a bend on whitley road opposite caltax, the car in front of me jammed brake, i e-braked, kena banged by taxi from behind, bike again nv dropped...

 

i truthfully ask everyone, when u brake do u always make it a habit to check your surroundings??? exp your rear...sometimes this simple checking exercise will actually save u when time comes....so know ur surroundings...

 

as the chinese saying goes knowing your adversaries is half the battle won....

 

 

HUAT AH!!!!!!!!!!!!

i think is Sun Tzu's quote? know your enemy, know yourself, 100 battles, 100 win. this is direct translation.

 

very true, must make it a point to be aware of your surroundings, know your routes well, keep a cool and level head. check your side mirrors every few secs, just glance left and right. it will save you from alot of uneccessary trouble.

Yeah the time when u told us the story, i was like "Stop liao also gena. WTF sia. Your X9 is a accident magnet for bumper cars sia."

 

But i agree.

 

Though i ride like for a few months, but i feel my experience on the road driving around in my little car does help to predict all the weird, crazy, bimbotic, phone talking, kissing and !@#$% drivers their next move.

 

Perhaps by thinking if u are the driver, wat would you do? Den react accordingly perhaps?

 

Just my 1 cent worth :)
