After my last puncture I got the PR3's fitted. Had the rear buffed to the edge in about 30 miles. Well OK, when I say the edge there's a chicken strip about 3 or 4 mm wide, you have to look close to see it. The front I think you need to chuck it down the road to get it buffed to the edge. I like to get it done right away with new tyres, a wee run just to buff em in, just in case I forget for a second I've got new tyres on.
Pegs down? Only done that a couple of times since I got the K-Tech shock a few years back. Given up trying to scrape em on my favourite bends.
Practise, practise, practise - maybe. But if it an't working, you don't feel confident and you keep pushing, well you might come off.
All I can think of, is that's it's down to steering. That means knowing how steer the bike, and it does take a wee bit of input to get the thou over, especially at speed. Oh and slow in fast out helps. You want some power on when banked over me thinks.
I'm better going right than left, I think it's just cos you have a better view going right and a feeling you have more road to play with.
And yup, try not to go faster than what you can see.
