[QUOTE="VAcracker, post: 1460634, member: 97951"] Not sure there is a fully correct answer for everyone and every situation Things that I feel come into play universally are speed and turn radius. These will dictate the requirement facts regardless. Keep in mind Lean angle equals risk period. The main determining factor for a given radius is speed. If you’re going fast reducing lean angle with body position is probably the safest way through. By no means does this require chin to handle bar and knee to ground. It could be anything between tilting hips to shifting your butt some and dipping a shoulder at reasonable street speeds . Even spirited riding on public roads should never require a GP racer pose. Going slow the lean angle will likely require more speed than most expect along with counter weight/lean with your body. Just my opinion in non novel mode. [/QUOTE]
