well color me yellow, 'cause I'm resigned to the fact that my Bandit is forever doomed to chicken strips. I went for a "spirited" ride on some of the closer twisties and it felt like I was gonna drag the footpegs, or cases or sumpthin'. Still came up with chicken strips. It felt like if I laid it over any more the bike should just slide out from under me. Ride safe everyone. Picture is worth a thousand words:

If you survived the ride, that is more important than the size of your "strips".

Spirit Talks
When that "spirited" mood appears..I preview the road(s) at a slower pace to evaluate the conditions ,especially like you were in the twisties.sometimes I will chicken out if spirits suggest so...Ride to Return to Home Sweet Home is the Main Mission for me
