Might also mention that putting on a Disk front end from a T bike should
raise the bike...along with longer rear shocks should help in the clearance
department...this is what I'm doing on my Ken Pitts replica
bike..:-)...along with centerstand removal, rerouting exhaust and maybe
custom rearsets.....not that I could possibly lean the bike over that far
with my skill level...

For the street bike, I find removing the centerstand & leaning off when
needed works for me. I'm sure you guys know this but I'll say it anyway,
staying on the throttle through turns keeps the frame stressed & thus
helps
 keep parts from touching down.

The race bike is a different matter
Centerstand & sidestand removed (mandatory for racing)
Reroute exhaust headers & slip-ons
Stiffer suspension front & rear
Shorten footpegs or better yet replace with folding footpegs
