If riding on the left side of the roads (England, Japan, etc..) opposite would apply.
On the track, you can take up the whole road surface.. left and right turn should "feel" equally.

I feel the opposite. You need to be cognizant of where you are leaning with respect to oncoming traffic that is often crossing the line into you. Of course if you low side into a right turn you may slide into oncoming traffic but that does not worry me as much as people who do not know how to stay in there lane.
