Title: Experia - -Drift, Lean and Wheel Angle
Post by: DonTom on March 19, 2023, 10:03:25 AM

Drift, Lean and Wheel Angle

On the display & mentioned on Page 62 to 64 of the Experia Owner's Manual, which doesn't explain much.



What is all that nonsense about?

Is any of it useful for anything?

Lean angle is obvious.....the "wheel angle" is either wheelie or stoppie... and the other is how much you can back the bike into a corner.....not much use for us mere mortals.

Is it useful for anybody? If somebody is leaning that much, don't they have better, safter things to look at than the bike's screen?


BTW, can the "lean angle" be used with the bike at a stop to see how level it is?  Since my Experia is not here, I cannot check for that right now. My SS9- here doesn't have such nonsense.

The screen will show both current and max values so you can see how far you leaned the bike over at the end of your ride. The menu is there is you want to use it, if not just ignore it. I could see it being a interesting visual to have on your screen if you were recording with an action camera.

Lean angle data can totally be used to see how close to vertical the bike is when you come to a stop.
