they thought I was wierd.

I am definitely more aggressive on lefties, in the car as well.

They're the weird ones -- get new friends.

^^^Hahaha...maybe you and I should hang out .

I started out more comfortable in left turns but a year of riding at Barber beat that out of me, now I'm more comfortable in right turns
So, Woody, how much would you like the Corkscrew at Laguna Seca?

Sorry, EPi (worship the devil[sm=badbadbad.gif])...that last part was subliminal [sm=icon_rofl.gif]. I guess I can't understand your comfort level in a right hander just as much as you can't understand my comfort in a left hander. How far do you have to go for your track day and when is it? I think you are a lucky dog! I am getting about an87 degree turnon my lefties just in case anyone was wondering...[&:].

The track day is here http://www.calabogiemotorsports.com/ on the 13th of August.It's about 5hrs. away. We are trailoring there on the 12th. This will be my first track day and I'm pretty excited. I posted a couple questions in the track day section.

Both have always worked the same for me .. I think it's mostly the mindset ... as long as you look completely through either turn there should be no reason one should be any more difficult than the other.

i like catching big left turns so can more lean..i can go lower on left at higher speed..and i get lower on my right at lower speed..both are the same...im on the edges on my rear tire..left and right...i've been practicing on drag knees at 10mph last 3 days...dropped the bike once on the left side..

It really comes down to natural arm strength... righties probably like right turns and lefties probably like left turns...

but that all goes away if you work out because your arms should be about the same strength then.

well like different things about different sides....i can lean lower and more compfrtable on lefts, but i like right because you can hug the side sorta visually where as with lefties you have to kinda hug the centerline....that probably doesnt make any sence, but it does in my head.
