For most it is a natural reaction. They feel comfortable "on" the bike and don't want to stray too far.

So many people talk about "getting your ass off the seat" or "dragging a knee" that most noobs think that is all there is to body position.

The kiss the mirrors is a good example. Another I have used is to pretend that there is a vertical board where your upper fairing is, force yourself to look around it.

If you lead with your upper body, your hips will follow.
