One tidbit that I haven't seen in this thread (although I didn't watch all of each of the vids) is raising your outside elbow up and forward can help you get around a corner. I believe it helps to get more of your weight on the inside hand, however, it feels almost like magic when you get it right.
Thanks! I'll add that in to the mix of.
Lower outside foot
Lower heel.
Chin up near the head set.
Lay bike over between legs
look way ahead.
Rotate body toward apex.
bend elbows.
did I miss one?
Maybe your technique isn't spot on. I learned a lot from a thread called Norcal cornering clinic.
