No, I was saying don’t go full lock while rolling with the clutch out. If you need to turn MORE to keep the bike from falling over, that extra turning isn’t available. I have seen a kid drop some other guy’s bike in that exact situation. I myself have almost dropped a heavy ass VFR 800 in the same situation as well.
