2.1 Testing the Torso-Arms-Handlebar mechanism yourself:

"Testing beats talking". So nothing beats testing the Torso-Arms-Handlebar mechanism yourself to confirm that it exists. Most motorcycles may be too heavy, but a mountain bicycle with a large handlebar does the job just fine: All you have to do is sit on the saddle and let yourself fall sideways from standstill, letting the 2-Wheeler fall down to the ground as shown on images (1) to (4) below:

You can then experiment that:

- You are certainly not going to fall faster then the 2-Wheeler,

- It is rather very natural to keep your back more or less straight to avoid falling,

- Your arms orient the front wheel towards the side where the 2-Wheeler has fallen, as in (4) above, through the Torso-Arms-Handlebar mechanism

- And when fallen right down to the ground, you have to make a special and non-natural effort to orient the front wheel in the opposite direction as in (5) above.
