> Here is a serious question… how do i know my bikes limits of pushing it thou, i mean i know my bike cant corner like these bikes with huge tires, i have a small 120 rear tire on dunlop k330s lol, and from what i see for my blast not many other options, and even thou I understand the video, I still dont understand the limitations on countersteering or pushing it! lol and the weirdest one of all how so i get rid of or minimize fear IE “survival reactions” because honestly I dont wanna hurt myself or even kill myself, secondly i really dont wanna down my bike, but I do wanna ride a tad more agressivly!

_'THE EDGE_, _there is no honest way to explain it_ because the only people who really know where it is are the ones who have gone over."  
I’ve gone over my edge twice So now I know where it is pretty well.:crackup

You can’t ride more aggressively if you are scared or worried about crashing, how good is your BP? Do you know your entry, apex and exit in most turns? Because if you push it while in the back of your mind fearful you will be all crossed up on the bike you will most likely crash. Stay in your comfort zone with in 70 to 80% of your riding ability.

A 120 rear tire isn’t bad, you should see the rear tire on my scooter, I get some decent lean on that thing with room to spare on the tire aka “Chicken strips”

Also we will have a track here in May so, I say wait till next season the track is were you will learn more in a day than 6 months of street riding.:number1
