Corner with stone chippings on it. What to do?
#6
+1 to Twist of the Wrist II

I actually watched it again last night as well. A couple of people have mentioned pulling the clutch in, which is almost as bad as chopping the throttle. The problem with this is that weight transfers to the FRONT of the bike which makes you run wide and demand more from the front tyre - so be very aware when doing this. A lot of the advice in Twist of the Wrist is to keep throttle applied and rolled on gently to keep weight balanced and slightly more towards the rear where you have the largest contact patch.

If the road conditions are poor, reduce lean angle enough to still get round. Remaining loose as stevierst said is also very important, don't hang on for dear life, let the bike do the work. Unfortunately, its all very easy to say it but doing it is a whole other matter.
