I think it would be perfect for NW Arkansas. I liked them from the beginning (with the XB9R) but they were so overpriced. Now they are just right and the 12 would feel great on these back roads and let me retire the ZX6 to track days.

As for the hanging off I have a 34 in inseam so my knee hits pretty easily with just a half cheek. Like everyone else i leaned off too much at first, then as my speed on track improved there was little time to lean off that much in between chicanes and some corners. Perhaps i just got lazy...
