Wind question
Wind question
I'm wondering if it's just me or in my head.. but when i'm doing wheelies or anything to do with a wheel off the ground and it's a decent wind out.. it seems to push the bike around
Re: Wind question
Okay I might be a noob but seriously.. I wondering if it's just me.. because within 300-400yards i will be in the other lane on a windy day.. but on a none windy day i'm fine.. Maybe i'm just putting to much lean on windy days?

Re: Wind question
Bring it behind balance point, and lay on the brake and apply the throttle at the same time if it starts getting squirly on a windy day.... I know when I'm on 95 if I need to keep it dead center in the lane and its blowing hard it takes little body language, and more brake to keep it planted in one spot in the lane.

. Good luck with that idea. Re: Wind question

But yes wind can push you around. There is one road that always seems to have a gusty cross wind and the gusts will give me nudge but you just correct and keep going. Before being able to steer a wheelie **** like the crown in the road would always cause me to drift to the side.
Re: Wind question
well our roads are REALLY badly crowned.. all they do is use oil and dirt and compact it around here.. I gotta ride 2 hours for good pavement.. so i gotta practice on compact dirt.. where sometimes when i clutch it up I literaly DIG a divit in the road. or when i riding you can see imprints in the road from the bike.. hahah!.. But when i go to the REAL pavement i'm fine. winds today were 86km/h were i am.
