When making a normal turn, what should the rider do with their body and motorcycle?

When making a normal turn, the rider should lean their body and the motorcycle at the same angle. This technique, often referred to as "countersteering," allows for proper balance and control during the turn. When both the rider and the motorcycle are leaning together at the same angle, it helps maintain stability and keeps the motorcycle's tires in contact with the road, which is crucial for traction and safety.

Leaning at the same angle allows the center of gravity to shift appropriately, aligning the motorcycle’s lean with the curve of the turn. It helps prevent the bike from slipping out from under the rider and promotes a smoother turn. Keeping the body upright or making no adjustments can lead to loss of control or increase the risk of a crash, since the motorcycle might tip over or not navigate the turn effectively.
