So as I've gotten more comfortable riding I've started to notice some things that I have to question.
Often times when I go around a tight sweeping turn I get the feeling like I'm leaning back. I'm trying to get my body over the tank and head toward the mirror in the direction that I'm turning. I'll shift my body slightly off the seat in the direction that I'm turning as well.
However, on many occasions I've simply felt like I was leaned back when I'm in the middle of the turn and exiting the turn. It's like the bike is accelerating through the turn without me, although I'm gripping the tank with the outside knee and feet securely on the pegs, and as little weight on my arms as needed to steer / counter-steer on the bars.
Anyone else get this sensation? Is it due to the upright bars vs. clip-ons? I'm pretty sure it's due to poor form on my part, but I'm not really sure how to combat it when I mentally feel like I'm doing my part to keep good form.
Appreciate any feedback or advice. :thumbup:
