You should try counter-leaning, another advanced riding technique.

Standing on the pegs, your legs will act as shock absorbers. In the MSF course one of the things that is taught is to stand on the pegs as one crosses a 2x4 or other obsticle on the road. Sitting down will produce a pogo effect and can cause the rider to loose control of the motorcycle.
is a 2x4 a normal obstacle in the road? What about possoms?
I don't think the MSF would go for that in class
