Idk if this adds anything, but I corner better when I drag the rear brake.

Also most bikes are weight biased towards the front.

Supermoto guys put their leg on the front axle on sharp slow turns and stick their knee out in wider fast turns.

I try to keep my weight forward, and its a lot easier to save the rear when I loose it then to save the front after I lost it. (Both are save able though).
