> It is a big bike, heavy in the turns. COUNTER-STEER! But remember the 2K

How many non-educated beginning riders do you think have the slightest idea
what it means to "countersteer".  There are a hell of a lot of people who
are not beginners who don't have the foggiest idea what it means!

Which is EXACTLY why a beginner should not be on a large, heavy, powerful
bike.

IMHO Thor your advice is bad.  I hope Mark, or any one else for that matter
has the good sense to look elsewhere when it comes to buying advice.
