Charlesbusa,
What you mentioned..and everyone else touched on is called Trail braking. I've gone to racing school twice and have my racing license..this is one of the techniques they teach us. If you load your front brakes while going into a corner the front end is down and you should be able to go into that corner much easier..of course you will be weighing your inside peg and off your seat... I ride this way all the time with the busa..but I'm not fast..but I'm coming from a straight and carrying a bit of speed...Bog has taught me to just break before the corner..shift down..and throw it in...mind you you're breaking pretty hard. I don't recommend it for everyday riding..but this is what I call riding hard....be careful though you need to match the rev's with the gear you're in when you go into the corner otherwise you liable to highside. Anyways..have fun...ride safe..these are racing techniques...if you're riding like this on the street then..I say slow down.
