I HATE when people give other riders **** for having chicken strips. If you only do street riding and have no chicken strips then that means you are a crazy mofo.

Having awful body positioning is also an option for how street riders can get rid of chicken strips. Honestly I find it easier to use more of the tire on the streets, specifically the super twisties, than I do on the track due to laziness with BP and having to take lines that aren't as good due to having one lane to work with

We say at the Superbike School that you should turn the bike as quickly as possible for the given corner. This doesn't mean that you are slamming the bike over in every turn, it just means getting it done in the least amount of time. The less time you spend TURNING your bike means the earlier you can get on the throttle to stabilize your bike, so get it done as soon as possible. And I just want to clarify that turning the bike quickly doesn't mean HAMMERING on the bars as hard as you can every time. There are ways to be much more efficient with your turning so that you can get it done quickly with less effort. Most people think that turning quickly means that you have to use excess force on the handlebars or shove on them longer but it actually means getting a quick and efficient push on the bars- you press harder not longer. So, what are some ways you can more efficiently get the steering action done? what prevents people from turning the bike more quickly then they already do? Misti

If I feel where you're "really" coming from and assuming street speeds, your interpretation of using a quick flick to compensate for a misjudged line is a good one. Let's just not call it a "crutch", let's call it a tool. If a rider misjudges a turn in point (misjudged line most likely too), a quicker flick (faster rate of steering) can keep the bike out of the ditch mid corner or on exit.
