Im doing my DAS so am on an ER500

The riding part is fine but am struggling with the slow riding control stuff. Im not used to being able to turn the handlebars into a turn as i have been riding the YZFr125 sports bike.

I know i was very tense and at one stage even shed a tear (silly girl) so i think if i relax a bit and stop worrying it may be smoother.
