That steals a lot of ground clearance for leaning aft and forward the contact patches of the tires.

The only things that effectively limits leaning are:
- Slower speed.
- Greater radius of turn.
- Hanging-off.

Keep steady throttle rather than accelerating during such turn, because uphill turns naturally load the rear tire more than the frontal tire.
Hernan, pretty sure....too peppy on entry, too tight, tipped in too much, no hanging off, accelerating as soon as leaned over. There should be extra credit for doing it _all_ wrong.
