Lean more? why? if you can negate a turn at speed or faster with minimal lean angle, more power to you.

It helps to have grip on the sides of your tank to keep your knee from slipping while you're hanging off.

practice this on wide open turns with no oncoming traffic and no obstacles along the side of the road in case of a get-off. Relaxed grip on the bars and if you're trail braking, be smooth.
