I'm relatively new to riding, got my fz6 last September. I am by no means amazing but I'm not afraid of leaning the bike until I get to the point of scrapping the feelers or my knee.
Recently I was messing around in a parking lot working on low speed stuff and I decided to start going in circles to get used to leaning really low. I was going around 25mph and the first time I scrapped my peg feelers my bike got super squirrely and unstable and I thought I was gonna crash.
I'm wondering if this is just me not expecting it and I just need to practice more, or if you just gotta be that careful of pegs and feelers since it's a 'hard point', at least compared to a knee being able to move. I've also heard from people that going slow like that just makes the bike more unstable but I also don't wanna risk trying it at faster speeds and actually crash.
