This one. It's all about upper body position. Half-an-ass-cheek off the seat is enough. You need the bulk of your body weight (which is carried in the torso) as low down as you can, close to the side of the bike, towards the front. Hug the tank like it's your long-lost girlfriend, then drop the inner shoulder forwards and down. Then take all the weight off the bars.

I still concentrate on unweighting the bars in almost every single corner, every lap. It's not 'natural' and it's hard to do - the natural inclination is to hold on as tight as you can!! Particularly as you push harder, and are closer to the limit.
