Chicken Strip Anyone?

This is what happens at extreme lean:

Try this...

This is probably what I need BUT you have to use your own ride! The margin for error is very thin with that option.

Extreme lean scaping? No thanks! I don't need to get that low. I have been pushing the envelope a tad more lately but I'm still learning.

That is what happens when you're a millimeter away from crashing. Get your body leaning off the bike before you put the big girl down. And where the heck are your peg feelers in all this? ???

On a standard Busa you will start rubbing the sides of your boots (or footpegs) and your exhausts before you get enough lean angle, so you will still have some chicken strips. To get to the max you will need rearsets and aftermarket pipes. I had to raise the rear by 1 inch to stop scraping the fairing and stator/clutch covers.

If you have your feet positioned properly, that is not the case. Ride with balls of your feet on top of the pegs. Toes are barely off of them at all. I don't have strips and I don't drag my footpegs or exhaust. Well, I don't normally have strips anyways. I just put new Pilot Road 2's on and they are not fully broken in yet... just got them 2 days ago and haven't had time to do any sporty riding yet. This weekend though.
