From what I've heard, as they are coming off of the straights into hard left handers, it allows them to be hard on the brakes and centered on the bike but also get their weight off to the left of the bike to start turn in a bit sooner.

Rossi started doing awhile back. It made a comeback with the 800 this season. They are using it to sort of correct the bike and make it easier for turn in from what I have been told by racers. It's something to do with these bikes.

Just watched the Fox coverage, which sucked, but the announcers said it was to correct the bikes for corner entry. They sucked, I wanted to punch the american announcer.
