Thanks for the replies guys. I really only scrape on twisties on the left side more often than not, and my parents always comment on how I lean on every corner. I also read a review of the Savage where the reviewer comment something like: "the Savage has a respectable lean angle for a cruiser". That lead me to think it was above say 30 degrees, which most bikes seem to be around.

It'll lean a few degrees PAST "Pucker Moment".

After taking a bunch of measurements off the bottom, including width, diagraming data, I reckon anything over 25 degrees of lean is foolish; depending on how heavily loaded and how compressed into the corner, 20 is more realistic- and leaves little-to-nothing for surface defects, holes.  Unweighted and suspension uncompressed, at 30 degrees the pegs make contact, followed closely by the exhaust.
