Therefore, I was pushing the front wheel out a bit.

Sometimes called "pushing the bike under yourself". One way to break the habit is to consciously bend your inside arm (pretend you have a brick tied to it) and drop your inside shoulder -- you will find you can ride a given curve a higher speed and not put a peg feeler down (depending on the bike's ground clearance). Many people have a tendency to scoot a butt cheek off on the inside (good) but also tend to lean their spine back towards the bike centerline (not so good). Takes practice to overcome -- DAMHIK.

Yeah, I got LOTS of practice at VIR on that one. And to convince myself, I took turn one at VIR at a little slower pace the old way and then dropped the shoulder/bent the arm a little more halfway around the turn (it's a 180 degree right hander). The difference in the front wheel's tracking was noticeable.
