I have yet to notice an issue going left or right on my bike but when drifting my truck I know I'm more comfortable studying around a left than a right. I think this may be because drifting to the right exposes my drivers side of the vehicle.

With safe regards from the mostly frozen north.

as this may verywell be the best theory, using tire wear as an indicator can't always be used as definite evidence. rember most 2 lane roads crown at the center so even if you lean equaly on both sides, the side towards the center of the road (left or right) will always wear more.

i believe first two things are correct..!! but not so much abt the dominant side and stuff...!!!

also, im a bit cautious when leaning either side as i am worried if i fall i might damage my bike which even thinking of makes me sad...!!! (FYI, my bike is 1 yr 3mnths old and yet unscratched which i am proud of)

i know i have that capability to lean a bit more than what i actually do, but subconscious mind says ''be careful you don't want to wreck your bike...you are not a motogp champ and there is no team and sponsors to fix up your bike...yes its your pocket who will be paying...''
