Now I think I get this part.

You are forgetting about cornering G forces ... I have already stated that to alter the bike lean angle you need to alter your bike and rider combination CoG related to the G force direction ... not just gravity (as in straight down to earth). This is exactly the same as for riding in a straight line and wanting the bike to lean one way or another EXCEPT that you now have cornering G's involved.
