It will probably just take a good bit of experimentation to get comfortable with the peculiar riding position. I have been really struggling with this myself, under hard braking in particular. I have taken to studying action shots of the AHRMA Thruxton Challenge guys when I can find them. I figure that these cats are obviously getting everything the bike is good for, so their form is probably worth studying. I've also thought about trying some "stomp grip" on the tank, to make it easier to anchor my lower body, but haven't done it yet. GOOD LUCK!!
