I think I have come away from this accepting that I don't really understand what's happening with my bike during a corner that well and that it's going to take me a long time to properly get it. Until the time -- that I get it -- I'm comfortable accepting the advice of those that already do.

I think my instinct takes care of most of my riding, but I like to consciously understand things too, so I can gently direct my instinct the right way. Also, so I don't have to training my instinct via trial and error. Trial and error on street bikes isn't fun.
A long long time ago I admitted I have no idea how to ride a MX bike, but my instinct does, and I am good at tuning the bikes, so I'm better off just keeping it that way. I couldn't for the life of me explain how to do what when X happens. But get me in the mood in X situation and I will just do what I need to do.
