"In  "If the gyroscope/engine is spinning at a fairly high speed in
    a clockwise
    direction, as seen from the back of the car and as shown in the
    diagram
    above. When the car is turned to the right (clockwise from above)
    forces A
    and B are applied to the structure of the car forcing the front end
    of the
    car down and the back end up. If the car is turned to the left then
    the
    front end of the car is forced up and the back end forced down. If
  the  gyroscope is spinning in the opposite direction then the
  reverse will  happen."

    This effect a lot of fun when I ride my old BMW R100 sport
    tourer"Airhead"
    motorcycle with heavy crank and flywheel thru very twisty roads
  with  RPMs  up. A fast transition from right hand turn to left hand
  turn, that  is nearly  scraping right food peg, then nearly scraping
  left, actually gives  sensation  of front wheel lifting, though I
  haven't looked to see.(!) The front  end  feels very "planted"
  turning briskly left to right.

  Don't forget, the front wheel has gyroscopic forces on it while booting
down
the road. For a quick turn in as in an emergency, they train you to give
the
bars a quick push opposite to the way you want to go and then turn the
way you
do want to go. This breaks the gyro force or upsets it so you can turn
without
fighting it.

   Hi Dale,  One countersteers a monotrack vehicle to move the wheel to
the outside of the intended turn so the CG is on the inside and pulls the
bike into the bank that makes the bike go around the turn.  There have been
experiments with counter rotating front wheels to cancel gyro forces and
they steer just fine.
