It'd be really useful for me to know what it's capable of both at slow speeds and mid speeds (40mph) as i've been fairly conservative with it so far and thats caused me to either take corners too wide or be too cautious on slow speeds (for fear of dropping it on mini roundabouts).
as far as leaning goes I think you would run out of guts/skill/attention before you overran the geometry of the bike. Looking through the turn and countersteering will get you through any on-road situation. Maybe make it a point to spend time in a parking lot doing low speed turns - it's a worthwhile investment and if you can get down far enough you'll hear what scrapes first (those little steel nubbies on the bottom of your footpegs).
