Also... what do you mean the center of gravity is down the center of the bike? I’m fairly certain that is not true except when you are going in a straight line.
I mean the force of gravity, too. When you lean right in a turn, the centrifugal force to the left is counteracting the lean. The force is lined up with the tilt of the bike. If it was to the right, you'd fall right over.
