I have the same problem. I slow down way too much I think lately but I think that's do to tires not being warm enough (cold weather riding) and I'm afraid I don't have that much traction.

Also, the corner just seems too tight. But I've done it in 'twisties' before. Also, I'm in lane position three when I make the right turns, that's why it's tight.

Also, I feather my clutch when I do right turns sometimes. I know I shouldn't, but I do. Actually, left turns too sometimes when I go really slow due to safety reasons (parked cars in the way, I may not have seen some 'child' behind it).
