Did some parking lot riding today. Worked on circles in my 09 Vision. Was ALMOST able to keep them within two parking spaces. ALMOST. But wierd part was I wasn't scraping, and although I was very CLOSE to full lock, I wasn't there yet. Very surprising that this big of a bike can turn that tightly. So that means, ideally, I should be able to do a two parking space u-turn....

Getting there......

I do a parking lot ride about every two or three weeks also. Gotta work the skills to keep them.

I found practising as for a slow race, makes cornering simpler. As you have perfected engine speed, clutch and brake coordination.

I would love to be in a motorcycle rodeo so i find myself practicing going REAL slow (clutch and rear brake) try to pause and go or see how long i can stay upright while paused at almost every stop sign, and tight circles. So fAr there hasnt been a parking lot i can't conquer!!!!
