Yup same...

 

You will notice that not only the butt out, the shoulders are also leaning into the turn. If only butt out and shoulders still in the centre of the bike, the postion will be awkward and cause the bike to lean more.

 

But for cornering newbies like me who dun dare to get the butt out yet, can practice with leaning the shoulders first until we get use to how the bike reacts through the bend or corner and where our anchor points are. Then we can slowly show our butts some action.

 

If got knee sliders will be even more garang :p
