I tend to reserve deep hang-offs to sweepers and tight hairpins where flicking back and forth isn't required.

I've seen some ugly crash result from getting too far off the bike when street riding. IMHO it's harder to react to emergency situations when you are that far off the bike. Of course,I don't try to do track days on public roads myself...
