the white rabbit

What Blue, Fizz and Weaselz says makes perfect sense to me and its the way I ride on the GS. However, I kind of started doing it by accident, in part as the GS was giveing me (too much) confidence. However, subsequently I found the same thing works a treat on a bike with a normal setup, and like Blue says above I pretty much couldnt imagine not trailing in and then easing in corner.

I wonder though, if one HAS to put a little on in corner, then if you are already trailing a little, i.e. easing off the trail, would easing a bit on be less likely to unsettle the bike than if you were completely off the brakes and had to put on to the same degree??
