Hi Mark
When I turn I lean into the corner. Not as much as pressing on the front
frame but more of rolling my whole body into the turn. When I ride her
as a two wheeled version
my back has to be in contact with the seat. With the trike I can see
when the surface angle of the road changes, I lean forward, with only my
butt on the seat. When the trike tilts I lean in the opposite direction
of the tilt.
At high speed when I feel she wants to flip I just relax my feet, even
stop pedalling and she corrects herself, again depending on road surface
angle. I can even feel the seat kick in my back. I find that a smooth
pedalling action works better than trying to power pedal.
The only real annoying thing is when I change gears. Foot steering
becomes a problem and I have to do it slowly and carefully. I nearly
flipped her on a few occasions while changing gears. It happens on my
two wheel
python as well. I dont know, but maybe my setup is not correct.
All this body rolling makes for an exciting ride.
I hope this answer is helpfull
Cheers
Gavin
