I think I should point out something here:

in a straight line, with no steering inputs, the front wheel acts as a stabilizing gyro, keeping the bike upright.

the instant you put countersteering force into the bars, precession occurs and the bike leans over, the gyro goes from being something that adds stability to something that reduces that stability enough for the bike to turn, so to speak....pardon me if I dont know the snooty college terminology for it.

lighter wheels make it easier to turn because you are having to move less mass to get the effect, and anything lighter can change direction quicker.

and banda: I understand gyros perfectly, whats not to understand about them? Just because I dont have a fancy degree means I cant comprehend a basic law of physics? please.

Please quit ignoring the fact that ANY spinning disc is a gyro, including motorcycle wheels.
