:lol

I like this new thought. Thatd be awesome if after a win he told everyone in the interview thats why he did it.

lol hell yea

meh prolly just trying to unstick his nuts from his inner thigh. Gotta be hot in those leathers

Did Rossi ever ride dirt bike? I'll learned to ride motorcycle off road. It's a very effective way to help keep your balance.


But I do like the possibility that he's playing mind games.. Later he gets to say :wtfru:

I'm still going with the assessment that trip and I had.

So do you sit straight up in the seat when you go through corners or not put any input to the handlebars at all?

How I do it is use my body for the majority of steering, then use countersteering to make minor adjustments to my line.

Counter steering induces lean. Lean makes you corner. Centre of gravity alters lean once it has been created, which changes your line.

You can induce lean by yanking your whole body to the side but the amount that you induce will be small when compared to what you get from counter steering and the faster you go, the less lean you can get that way because of gyroscopic stabilization.

Trust me here; it isn't your body that's making the major inputs.

I think in an interview Valentino said it helps prepare for the corner and didn't turn the bike any faster.

I think he has gas and is just helping the fart out faster
