I have a full dress motorcycle, how do u get comfortable cornering at higher speeds?
i always have to slow down, and go around slower than the rest of the group.
I’m assuming you mean a touring bike. I think all of the advice was good with the exception of taping your throttle wide open. But I can add one more thing. All touring bikes do not handle corners the same way. I noticed one fellow mentioned his goldwing. Honda goldwing and BMW’s K1200LT handle corners about as well as sport bikes, and are well behaved at high speeds.
Other touring bike do not necessarily behave that way. I have a Kawasaki Voyager VII. It does not handle like a sport bike. It runs very well and is capable of more speed than the suspension system can really handle. It tends to wallow like a pig if you corner too hard. I guess it’s the 1975 design of its suspension system. Which is soft and comfortable on the interstate but a little spooky in the mountains.
I read road test on bikes, can’t remember much other than I knew what to expect with the Kawasaki. I also understand certain Harley models have the same problem. Not necessarily a defect, just a suspension tuned for a smooth ride rather than good handling.
Before you get too aggressive on corners I’d research a test ride on your bike and see what the professional riders have to say about it. Just because a guy flys around a corner on a goldwing doesn’t mean you should expect the same from your bike.
