You're possibly doing what a guy i knew used to do. He used to brag about insane lean angle and destroying his boots. I watched him ride and he had his foot positioning all wrong. He put the middle of his foot on the peg, then pointed his toes out when he didn't need to touch the levers. You should have the ball of your foot on the peg. the same as when you stand on your toes. Like this:

Dafrostyone. You were right ! I made a note to check what my feet were doing. And they were abit too far forward !
Corners like a dream now ! Managed a nice kd too. Not bad for an old girl is she !
Thanks so much

Jenks. Nice bike, can I have a go? does it feel strange only having the one bike now? hows it handle? and power? Id like a v4 again at some point in the future.

The one i rode was comfy as fuck! I could easily have ridden it from one end of the country to the other. little bit tricky to work on as it's a V4 with the frame covering the sides of the carbs. Power wise it's great! No mental top end power band, just a wide spread of torque throughout the rev range. Stick it in any gear you like, ham fist the throttle open and it's going. Spot on if you're a lazy sod Laughing
