so...i guess we can assume that 90% of the people who have bigger strips than you have better body positioning than you.

Its hard to really rate someone by their strips. I lean as low as scraping my pegs. And I have seen some who get as low as me and their tires don't show much at all. To me, the chicken strips don't mean much at all, its whether or not you can ride and have control. And not too mention that different tires wear at different rates.

as stated earlier, the size of the unused tire tread isnt a sign of a bad rider who doesnt lean the bike, well in some cases of streetbike squids it is....anyway... i lean off the bike with half of my butt off the seat with my knee out, looking almost through the mirror, using my thighs as holders and my hand that is in the turn as the control hand. i lean like a monkey off my bike, and am getting close to dragging my knee, but ive not been to a track day yet and im not gonna risk the rear end sliding out on me, already happened once, wasnt fun. back to topic...my strips are about 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch, but it also is good to have the bike in the utmost possible straight position when leaning into a turn....anyone maybe wanna sum this up and make sense of it? sorry if it is confusing for you
