I dunno how I missed this thread, but better late than never!

All of the advice so far has been great! The best advice I can give, especially for a newer rider, is to trust the bike.

As you start to gain a little confidence you will get more aggressive, and eventually you are going to enter a curve too fast. Trust the bike to make it! Stay as calm as possible, and just hold on as relaxed as you can be. You will make it through if you don't panic.

thanks for all the words of wisdom. Def gonna use them on my next trip to the twisties this weekend. And hopefully this will help anyone that's new and never rode before.

I found this vid helpful. I never knew about the space between your nuts and the tank. This guy at Superbike school uses his fist as a good measuring tool: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hlfN9Z6IlI0
