i definitely agree with that

i feel as though the majority of new rider crashes are from going too fast into a corner, then they panic and either stand the bike up and run off the road or hit the brakes while leaned over and lowside. after one trackday they would realize that street tires have an incredible amount of grip and you could double your speed in a corner and still make it without crashing.
