yea fortunately I live along the PCH so I drive down that quite often. And just recently I started making trips up Mullholland HWY. and it is notorious for its turns so that has helped me alot in my riding skills and confidence. And of course, going to the track has raised it more than anything else would.

 

Negative on the turning thing, but the equator does supposedly determine which way the toilet flushes.

 

yea ive heard about that i dont really understand it but i was just dumfounded when someone metioned that it also determines the way you turn it just didnt seem right.

 

you can balance an egg on a nail if your on the equator

 

I feel it's easier to turn left than right because the throttle's on the right grip. I do most of the countersteering by pushing the bar on the inside of the turn (push right, go right...). I feel I can be more accurate and precise with a push than a pull. When turning right, I'm pushing on the throttle twist grip, and that makes it harder to accurately control the throttle.

 

Never heard of it before. And NO.

 

Not that anyone cares, but I'm a physics Ph.D. student, and I assure you the coriolis 'force' (it's not really a force) doesn't cause the water to turn one direction over the other when you flush the toilet. That is, the water comes in at some angle and direction, and the coriolis effect is not strong enough (not even close) to overcome whatever initial angular momentum the water has.

It's also not close to strong enough to have any appreciable effect on your motorcycle's turning.

I grew up racing motocross, and most mx'ers could corner much faster left than right. We always attributed it to having the brake pedal at your disposal, but this could have been baseless.

hahaha, I used to think the same thing, but I have two toilets in my house and they are opposite, meaning one flushes clockwise and the other counter-clockwise!!

I am the same exact way, I am right handed, but find it easier to go left due to throttle on the right.
