Mark,
If you really want to rid those strips, there is no substitute for miles. Get out & ride more.

HTH.

whilst you riding gods* out there maybe able to do all that leaning stuff and ride miles on end, 50 mile is about my limit at present, besides us curiser rider get it to far over and the tassles on our jackets get all ruffled up.

thinking about fitting a cup holder, spillage shouldn't be an issue .

* in there own shoe size.

Cheers Mark.

No big deal really, corners are over rated allegedly. You'd be fine in the states.

TBH cos the rear is so pinched its impossible to get it to the edge on the back imo. you have to be scraping down the road on the side...
