Ask Thatch. He increased his lean angle by a few radians when he ground the bottom of his foot pegs down.

I'm doing my best to grind my way to higher and higher (or is that lower and lower?) lean angles....

I don't believe there has been any figures released on the actual lean angle, nor do I think that particular number would really reveal any real truths about the bike as the angle of lean is only one element in a bikes cornering ability. Suffice to say, I've yet to find a corner I couldn't navigate at twice the posted speed limit..... some grinding might be required. :P

It depends on if you're leaning right or leaning left..

Do you have steel over boots! You know - like the ones Steve McQueen and other riders used in the film 'On Any Sunday' - Could you imagine the display of sparks...
Could always ask the missus to get you some for Christmas!
