I think you guys are doing it wrong. This is lean angle!!!

On a serious note, with everything stock, does anyone know what gets dragged first on the new gen 250 or the 300? I'm assuming it's footpegs? Once the feelers touch down, how much more lean does one generally have?

I'm a conservative rider and I'm just afraid that I'll freak out if, one day, something drags....and I abruptly snap the throttle shut. That would be a bad day during mid corner on the street?

So, let me just put this out here....if something starts dragging and I'm mid corner and I need to maintain the same line (if not, I'll either run out of road or cross the double yellow), what should I do? Do I roll off gently? Or do I just keep the throttle in the position and keep the same lean angle?
