Its the caster of the front wheel, the trail, that pushes the wheel just a little bit past being back in line, so it weaves from side to side. Explain that with your gyroscopic forces and angular momentum.

I knew that.

When a motorcycle is traveling around a corner, the front wheel tracks outside of the rear wheel... the rear wheel turns in a tighter arc. In fact, the front wheel is pointed to the inside of the turn ever so slightly, the wheels are NOT in line when traveling around a corner. Explain that with your angular momentum and your gyroscopes.

Not always,only if the tires are the same width,a wider rear tracks outside the front track,or maybe closer too the same track.
Assumeing NO SLIP!
Quit making yourself look silly.

TOO LATE for me.
