Correct answer
By easing off smoothly and avoiding abrupt braking.
Avoid abrupt throttle, brake or steering inputs. If you have already entered too fast, ease off smoothly and, if braking is needed, apply it progressively according to grip and lean while keeping a feasible path within your lane. Do not brake abruptly while leaning as far as possible or suddenly straighten and accelerate. Prevent the situation by selecting suitable speed and gear before entry; no manoeuvre guarantees recovery beyond the grip limits.
