What does leaning mean?

[VonWeston]

Leaning is a term used by motorcycle enthusiasts to describe the operation of turning a motorcycle by tilting the body of the bike. When leaning, one must avoid oncoming vehicles and boldly tilt the bike, relying on the difference in diameter between the edge and center of the tire to complete the turn. The faster the speed, the deeper the tilt. Motorcycle leaning techniques: 1. Do not accelerate unnecessarily before entering a turn, as this can make the bike unstable and prone to tipping over; 2. Maintain a constant speed during the turn, avoid using the clutch or brakes, and instead use the throttle and tilt angle to adjust speed and trajectory, keeping your eyes on the exit point; 3. When you see the exit point, accelerate smoothly to avoid sudden acceleration that could change the tilt angle and alter the path; 4. Tilting the bike outward generates centrifugal force, so the rider must move their body appropriately inward toward the tire's contact point to counteract the force and maintain lateral stability; 5. During a turn, the wheels generate a tilting force, causing the wheels to move in a tilted motion relative to the road surface, resulting in an outward axial force, and the rider's body must also tilt accordingly.
