Which motorcycle is King of the Corners? Get the datalogger out!

Описание: Does the style of bike we ride dictate the way we go round #corners? Conventional wisdom says #sportsbikes are ‘better’ at going round corners than adventure bikes, which are better than cruisers, which are better than scooters, and so on.
We put that idea to the test at Bedford Autodrome with the help of a 2D MotoGP #datalogger, Robert Gray (Dean Harrison’s Crew Chief) and BikeSocial’s Michael Mann to examine the detail of how different styles of bike (different riding positions, tyres, steering geometries, ground clearance) respond to cornering.

The bikes we’re measuring are:
• Suzuki GSX-R1000R
• Ducati Streetfighter V4 S
• Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports
• Yamaha Tracer 700
• Royal Enfield Interceptor
• Piaggio MP3
