Hey everyone,
not trying to max out lean or ride beyond my limits—just working on body position and getting more comfortable leaning while staying safe.
I always thought the feelers under the pegs were meant to scrape fairly early as a warning, but in this photo I’m at roughly ~40° (slight uphill) and they’re not even close to touching. It almost looks like they wouldn’t scrape until around 50°, which seems pretty extreme for the street.
Since many people remove them for track riding, does that mean a Ninja 500 can actually lean past 50°? Just trying to understand how much margin I still have from here.
