I've never got a proper answer to this question -
If you've never learnt to ride a bicycle can you ride a motorbike?
I know the gyroscopic motion of the wheels makes it more stable at speed but thats the same for cycling.

    No, you can't.

    When I did my CBT we had a lot of laughs as they guy explained how they tried to teach two non-riders how to balance. After many falls they gave up.

    Riding a motorbike at slow speed if far harder than a bicycle. Lots of people fail just turning the thing around on the road.
