How can a motorcycle lean so much, yet still stays up?

I see MotoGP riders lean so much that their shoulders can touch the ground. How is this possible?

I believe you are indeed falling sideways, but because you are turning, the bike is also moving sideways so it continually moves in front of your fall and catches you out of it?
