Sweet...I thought so. I have galfer hh pads sitting in my garage b/c the only track I get brake fade on my bike is auto club. Figure why toss the stockers if I can make them last.

I counter steer in the bike does that count?

My last car was FWD...so its going to be a completely different skill set. I had to watch myself in the rain last night.

ya its weird to switch from FWD to RWD. A loved it tho and fell in love with sliding. Drifting is what got me into the car scene many years ago.

So now when it rains i automatically go out and practice cause it just means less tire wear (of course in huge areas tho were there is no traffic)

It happens naturally when you lean right you have more weight on your right hand thus pushing the bars left. Most ppl dont even know they are doing it and think that body steer is what is making the bike change direction.


I'm a RWD newbie, I have never gotten anywhere close to drifting. Just to tell you guys where I am at.
