What’s the max lean angle?

[ZeePopo]

Sounds more like a video game than motorcycling...

It's is hahaha. In real life you want to use the least amount of lean angle possible to take the curve thru body positioning. Lean angle numbers is just a way to see how far you compare to others leaning ability.

I see, electronic bragging rights...sounds even more like a video game...

At 51 degrees the end of my feelers are ground off

Never been over 43, but it has tooched on both sides with my 220 lbs

45 Degrees left, 44 right, no part of the pegs made contact. I'm 240lbs, hanging off slightly. Felt bloody amazing and stable. Standard S22's do a fantastic job.

You win! I’ve not past 48. I was hanging off a bit but I’m also heavy at around 270 (like 280 suited up). I don’t think I can hit more angle at my size.

Still though, these numbers are very good for a bike this size, that can be ridden on the street. I admit the Nannies are a nice comfort.

I am about 215lbs suited up. At 51 I still have a little bit of front tire left but not a lot. I do really like the s22’s though.

People leave their feelers on? Why? I can't stand the feeling of that scraping, and I always feel like it's about to unbalance my front tire.

I don't quite get the excitement of a lean angle gauge....I don't know when you'd have time to look at it while riding...and leaning....

I can picture someone looking down to see their lean angle in a corner only to look up and end up in the trees...

I'm kyna busy while riding so I leave it on "A" and don't look at anything except my speedometer and fuel gauge. Literally.

It should be remembered that it greatly affects the inclination of the road, as the angle refers to the horizon

Sadly the maximum angle of a bike is met with the sound of it sliding down the road on it's side....

Finding the max angle on the street is a crap-shoot as to if and when this will happen...

I guess the question we don't want the answer to is: "What is the sound of maximum lean angle?"

I've gotten 42* left and 41* right on the stock tires.

Nope. Neither the Hayabusa nor any bike that I'm aware of has a gyroscope.

I meant that if the road is perfectly flat it gives you one value, if the road is inclined it gives you another value
