I have only had this at Coram. I didn’t get it at brands anywhere.
It wasn’t a fight just a lode on the inside bar. It’s a long fast bend were you can run wide on the exit.
With no impute on the inside bar the bike would have run out before I wanted it to, so I was accelerating but still trying to hold the line in for long enough to make the exit.
I know what you mean about relaxing after the steering impute and rolling back on the throttle and the bike going were you want but round there it didn’t go were I wanted without this inside bar thing.
