Hee! Hee! Got the same thing too, just that it's my forearms that got the tiny little scratches, and they itch. But actually they are tiny cuts in the skin by the glass fibers.

 

Hands are ok, because even without gloves the skin quite callous can take the material.

But that time I "kia see", also got wear plastic bag gloves. :D

Motorcyclist are the nicest people on the road, try not to kill us.

1st, you need to go kelantan lane, go inside ah boy shop say what things you want, then one of the shop staff will ask the despatch guy guide you to their kallang workshop to fix up the sideboxes... just an advice, their mechs not very friendly one...

this is for those who want to know more about counter steering, explained in a simplified way thru video!

 

 

 

 

a good explanation of countersteering...or "one handed steering" as ahcaibiker called it.

 

 

bro! you hit the nail right on the head! this is what im referring to exactly!

 

i believe we all should master or being able to countersteer effectively, very useful on local roads filled with hazards (potholes, bongtards in cages, etc.)

 

i will not exactly advice countersteering with one hand unless you are quite experienced in it, we should always try to countersteer with both hands on handlebar. to be safe and stable. but you can really feel the counter steer if you only use one hand...

 

just a slight pull/push on handlebar and we can avoid obstacles in a fast, safe and effective way. no joke really. start trying it in an safe environment and you will understand the chimilogy of countersteering practically. for myself, im already using it effectively otr, siaming metal drain covers, foreign debris otr and vehicles cutting into my lane. :thumb:

 

thanks bro scubasimon for taking time to post up this useful and interesting video on countersteering... :thumb:

 

there are more related videos on counter steering so pls, take some time to view those helpful videos! :cheers:
