I rode with my dad all the time when I first started riding(well I still do), and he gave me some good advice, he has a harley ultra classic...and he would fly through the turns with my mom on the back and I would always have to ctach up after the turns.....I was like wtf?? never saw a big *** harley lean so far before....he finally got behind me and gave me some pointers, and I am ALOT better in the corners now. Even let him ride my bike(hes always been a harley guy) and he said he actually liked it!

One thing you will notice is as time goes by, you get more comfortable on your bike and youll be leaning even more then you realize...my chicken strips are still there, think I still have 1/2" left but I dont worry about it, I ride becuase I like to ride, not for the show.

 

I'm not sure how it happened, but I still had chicken strips on my F3 even after dragging my knee at the track. Now I have my 1000 and i have no chicken strips, and we don't have a track anymore . I guess the profile of the tire matters alot when it comes to having strips or not.
