Questions after reading twist of the wrist

Bought and read Twist of the Wrist II today...understood everything and learned a ton!(I think the book has probably already payed for itself in mistakes I won't make now)

The one thing I had a question about was in the stearing section. It talks about weighting the outside peg and the using knees to help lean the bike...is that right or am I completly off?

Thanks for the help sportbikes are a million times different than the cruisers I've always ridden!

I'm sure Code has confused quite a few riders
Agreed. When talking about peg weighting, most people are referring to using it to tip the bike in (weight the inside peg during corner entry), or stand the bike up (weight the outside peg on corner exit). Code refers to peg weighting as a means of bracing your body so you can put in a more effective, stronger countersteering input.
