Well, actually I use higher revs in corners. It gives me a little bit more engine braking up my sleeve - available with just the release of the wrist, but I think that is cheating since I should add lean with a bar push, and not be (engine)braking.
It's also not wise chopping the throttle in the middle of the power band on a mid-size vtwin, coz it might slip the rear tyre, and for the same reason it is important that the bike is not changed down gears, or the clutch suddenly released with the engine idling.
So there are two sides to that one, and neither of the arguments are really valid.

People all have so many different opinions on how to ride, how to take a corner - this is going to be an interesting thread
I say "back it in" that's the best way of getting around a corner - beginner or not, 'back it in' and ride the throttle hard all the way thru
YEEEEEEeeeeee HaaaaaaAAAAA
