NSR: Top Cornering Bikes - a surprise #1 from 2005

[klaviator]

my experience, any bike can take one curve, the real test is flicking from one corner to the next in the opposite direction

My experience is that the biggest limitation to cornering speed, besides the rider, is cornering clearance.  Scooters in particular are limited by this.

My super 8 was the worst of my scooters in this regard.  It would flick from side to side without effort but look at the limited clearance.

yep, clearance is the limit on my K-Pipe, but I'm taking care of that, they come with rigid footpegs, I have a little fabrication to do, but I will have folding pegs

On my X-Town it was always the centre stand which touched down first.  As for the DTX360, dunno, I've barely scrubbed the tyres in at this stage!
