It's called Keith code's twist of the wrist 2.
It deals with myths of motorcyle cornering and also the actual physics of why the bike does what it does.
How the actions you make effect the bike and why it happens in a technical sense.

Pretty interesting, altho some parts are common sense too.

yeah i have seen it heaps of times. It shows the right and wrong way of riding. More track orientated, but still applicable to the street. Well worth a looksie........Clap

The actors in the DVD are American and a bit "daytime soap" but if you can stay with it, the information is really good.

Some people are like Slinkies ... not really good for anything, but you can't help smiling when you see one tumble down the stairs.

Not sure about the DVD but I found both books 1&2 a very valuable read. Principals all apply to track and fast road riding.

Good stuff! The first thing I saw on the first page of Part II was "counter steering'. It immediately reminded me of a Fred Gassit cartoon where Fredsy points out the couter steering paradox, i.e. 'turning the bars to the right to turn left'.

So there, I'm admitting it, reading Fred Gassit improved my riding technique.

Good DVD, Everyone should watch it . Torrents . Gleamed more from that than 40 yrs practicing .Doesn't matter how much riding you've done, If your doing it wrong, your doing it wrong .

Twist of the Wrist 1 and 2 are both very much worth the read. particularly the comments by, correct me here someone, it's either Wayne Rainey or kevin Schwantz, cant remember which. It was a long time ago that I read both, and my son now has my copies, for study.
Cheers,
Terry
