[QUOTE="TomInPA, post: 1197486, member: 21394"] It seems I have to constantly coach myself and relearn the best body position in turns. The bad habit I have is to push into the countersteer, which keeps me over the center of the bike, rather than inside. I have to consciously keep my inside arm flexible so my center comes into the inside and I can "kiss the mirrors" My hope is doing this enough it will be be automatic, but I often find my elbow is not flexed enough and I'm still riding, rather than driving into turns. I'm getting better, and I don't expect to drag a knee at 61 years of age. I do feel a bit faster and more confident in turns, and can get inside to reduce lean angle when I need to. So, I can relate to the comments of the O.P. and I think a lot of us work on improvement. [/QUOTE]
