Bigsheep, good on you. Like the ferret, I've dragged a foot now and then, but not intentionally.
Once on an Edelweiss tour in the Alps, our guide, who was really hustling on a K1200LT, would lift his inside foot off the peg and extend it up towards the front of the bike, almost horizontal with the ground, when leaning into a curve. It was the weirdest thing I had ever seen but he was super fast in the curves and claimed later his technique gave him more leaning clearance. Who was I to argue?
