No, motorcycles cannot typically lean over 60 degrees. The maximum lean angle of a motorcycle depends on various factors such as the design of the bike, the tires, the road conditions, and the skill of the rider. However, most motorcycles have a maximum lean angle of around 45 to 55 degrees. This allows them to make sharp turns and navigate curves efficiently while maintaining stability. Leaning beyond this range can result in loss of traction and a potential crash. Professional riders in certain motorsport disciplines, such as MotoGP, may achieve greater lean angles, but even they generally do not exceed 60 degrees.
