Weighting the outside or inside Foot Peg

While sliding through a corner with the inside foot out for the corner you should be weighting the outside peg. How much weighting? I call it pressure down on the outside peg. Not so much that you hardly have any weight on the seat but enough pressure that it's comfortable for you.  Just 20 pounds of pressure makes a big difference. Taking 20 pound of pressure off the seat and bars (high center of gravity CG) and putting that 20 pounds to a low CG, big difference for bike and body related handling and traction.

 

When you are cornering through a fast slick corner and have both feet on the pegs (sitting or standing) you can get an even lower CG by weighing the inside peg.  Just be sure you’re not going to have to put that inside foot out for the corner.  It’s not important to weight either peg when cornering through a berm (rutted corner) because the berm will hold the tires from sliding out.

 

Develop success from failure.  Discouragement and failure are two of the surest stepping stones to success.  No other elements can do so much for a man if he is willing to study and make capital out of them.
