I don't have to worry about steering as I always hop off my bike when I get to a corner and just wheel it around until the road is straight.

I just find it less stressful

Do you push against the outside bar to turn it when you are wheeling it like that or do you hang off??

DaveM

Look I just wheel it ok?

I wheel it so I don't have to think about these terribly scientific questions.

I mean I just wheel it don't you get it!???

I don't believe you can steer a bike when wheeling it by hanging off or pushing a bar that is just idiotic, I push it in a straight line and the bike turns automatically!

There is no reason or science it just does it ok???

Yes it does!

it just turns all by itself without me doing anything I just push it around the corners then climb back on and ride the straight until the next corner.

No I refuse to believe it could make a difference and why are you people pressuring me I know it won't work anyway!

I am getting stressed now and will have to start pushing my bike on the straights and on the bends, this riding lark is getting way too stressful.

First time I ever rode a sportbike was on my friends SV650. I had ridden dirtbikes a lot before and some cruisers. After going a bit I realized that I really had to push on the handlebars to get it to make a corner. Was really weird that to make a left turn I have to press on the left handle bar and I didn't know it was called "counter steering" at the time.

I'm still getting used to leaning more in the corner on my 955i. Wasn't sure if it was a good idea for my first street bike to be a near liter bike, but haven't had problems with it yet.
