To me its such a rush to lean on powered tire edges and not just fly right off at a tangent but feel the blood forced to back of head and butt into seat as she hooks and leaps away. Interesting to me the posture, its sorta how i do THE Gravel at times, when I get tossed to ditch side of loose edge berm - can't give more power or rear sides down, cant turn fork any more or it washes out, only thing left is body English to lower forces on tires by causing bike to fall a bit away from the ditch towards direction of turn. That's when the forks will flip into a straight steering turn, If a bike starts to wobble in that state, ugh it can cause an ugly finish. If it don't then the zing of salvation floods the emotional juices. I'm talking about riding the very outside of a turn here not the inside though.
On inside pavement turns on Peel that posture is just too limiting to lean angle sharpness and chassis dynamics, as puts the CoG too high away from bike mass, so tires tend to lift, so I can't and don't ever ride fast far over like a hanging off knee out racer. Also when there are close turns the other way, chicanes?, I can not flip body to other side fast enough to matter a whit, so can't get away with hanging off racer style no way no how when letting Ms Peels hair down. Hanging off is one of the clues I watch for to know a riders turn limits so can judge when they are totally committed to a line by their pure limited physics and feel safe to nail it in about any line they will not be able to occupy and zip around outside or inside - which ever gives greatest space between us and most straight shot into the opens. Even Peel hooks up better upright than leaned, so least lean time = less wasted time.
I am confused yet on Doug MaRae's riding postures on his triple swash plate stabilized C'do, maybe it just sits so low it can't lean that far to create a pinch between tank and leg, really don't know why Peel causes me to avoid the racer style I see so much. But boy howdy sure want to explore that some day with some photo-video to study.
