Orrrr it could just be in your head. Lots of people are better at turning right than left (me included).

feel like the bike was falling while cornering
- Thread starter rakkaus
- Start date
Thank you.
What is a good way to centered the front while the rear on the stand?
i live in Hamilton
but Thank you though.ill try the "string method" suggested by Brian P.
^^ I'm voting for that.
my left lean is a lot smoother than my right. unused tire on the right is more than the left ;D
how/what can i do to overcome this?

If you put more weight on the outside footpeg while cornering the bike will feel more planted.

My left nut hangs lower then my right. What a coincidence

I ain't no expert (not being sarcastic eithe) but I reckon proper turning involves. Pressure on the inside peg and pressure on the out of the tank with the outside leg and try to hold the bars as loose as possible

I've seen a few different types. The string method is one but I've seen a laser one that is stupid easy to use so I think I might get one of those eventually. I'm not sure how much I trust the swingarm marks that I'm using right now. There's a compromise too, you can get a cheap motion pro device that lines up with your chain from the rotor (hence aligning your wheel).

Don't forget to tell your tailor, if you have one. Makes a world of difference with custom pants.
Maybe it's the wheel bearings? Just fixed up that problem myself. Even one dodgy bearing can affect handling.
Both things work because foot pressure doesn't affect the bike's handling or steering. Outside pressure before leaning in is called pivot steering. Haven't found a use for it on the street and haven't practiced it enough on the track but some riders use it
That looks like it will have turned the rear wheel a little to the left from where it was. That could be the solution. A rear wheel angled slightly to the right would make the bike feel like it's falling over in left turns.
