So I wrote this long-ass "open letter to knew sport bike riders" awhile back (has been posted on NESR a few times), which has found it's way all over the internet. Evert few weeks I get someone emailing me with questions or asking some advice. Tonight I got the freakiest one to-date. See below.

Hi Chris,
My name is XXXX , i guess that i must of been the exception because my
first bike was a gixxer 750. I took the basic course with msf , then i took
the intermediate after 2yrs. with my bike . I dropped it once when i was
doing a uturn at a very slow speed. I started riding kind of late so i
figured let me get something nice before i get to old to ride sportbikes. I
feel very lucky that i have never gone down really bad. I took my time
with it for the first 3yrs. and now iam starting to get to know the bike.
So the advice you are giving is so true. I guess i been very lucky or wise
to take my time with it.confused. If you rather explain through the
computer that's fine, also. I want to learn how to countersteer before i
get my next 750 06. Hopefully iam not to old to still ride sportbikes.
My number is XXX-XXX-XXXX. On weekends it's free.
I figured with the breakdown you gave for the new riders you must know how
to ride good.
Ok laters . Senior Gixxer 750 Rider.
Still till this day i cannot understand the concept of countersteering
though. I know i must be doing it unconsciously but can you really explain
to me how it's done. I've seen some clips in short movies but it's hard to
follow. Can you elaborate on this.
Thank you in advance ! If you don't mind can i have your number so i could
call you , or i will give you my number if you don't mind calling me, cause
the countersteering thing has me alittle confused.
