@Prospected, I'm diggin' those pictures in the corners. Great lean angle and good photography!
There's just one thing I noticed which I was guilty of too in the past, is the outside foot. I used to have the ball of my feet on both pegs much like you and it never gave me much confidence. Apparently what should be done, is that you dig your heel into the peg on your outside foot. When I went to do a 3 day trackday programme in 2013 it was Troy Corser himself who told me as much. For hard braking, you dig both heels into the pegs for maximum control.

Ignore the circle, I just grabbed this pic off the interwebz real quick. Check their left feet. I'm hoping that practicing this will give you even better control over the GT.

There might be some science to it - the more contact with your bike the better you can impose muscle strength and handling, but it might just be preference too. Who knows.

Today is a great day in the garage. Bike has 400 miles and it's time to get rid of that proboscis sticking off the rear and add the Ktm Carbon slip on holder. Since the rear seat cover is in order, the passenger foot pegs are going too.
