QuoteAlso as you lean over, the effective diameter of your wheel is reduced because you are moving from the crown of the tyres to the shoulder of the tread. This means that you would then be travelling at a slower speed than your corner entry speed unless you open the throttle to compensate.I think you are wrong on both counts. The tyre must maintain it’s diameter across it’s width. If you have a varying diameter depending on where on the tread you are you will have one very weird handling bike. This is why we don’t like worn tyres, particularly say tyres that have worn down in the centre but still have plenty of meat on the sides. Why? Because every time you tip into a corner the wheel is forced to slow and you can feel that as the bike twitches into the turn. Even worse is a rear worn badly in the centre with a front badly worn on the sides. The front wheel then speeds up as the rear slows on entering a corner which = evil handling.
Ps when I say leaning – I mean the rider leaning. Yes the bike must lean to make a turn but the rider does not necessarily have to. The bike is forced into a lean by input at the bars.
