How two-wheeled vehicles stay upright

Postby FastLizard4 » Wed Nov 25, 2015 2:45 am

Over the summer, the excellent YouTube channel MinutePhysics did a video explaining how two-wheeled vehicles can stay upright without a rider when in motion. Though the video focuses on bicycles, the same principles apply to motorcycles. Check it out here!

(There's also a followup video that briefly explains counter-steering in the context of the first video; that one can be found here.)
