How would you take the this turn (Bandra Reclamation)

This is a discussion to know the different ways people may have taken this turn.

Location: Mumbai Western Expressway just before the worli sealink there is a Reclaimation turn that is a long curve that sharpens.

It's on my daily commute and have always wondered how many ways could you take this corner (it is probably the only decent corner I have seen in Bandra)

My Way: Decelerate to Second gear at about 30 kmph and hold constant throttle until the exit then accelerate till about 60. Basically Slow in - Fast out

Note: This is quite a dangerous turn since both cars and bikers have crashed or fallen off the bridge. It does have new rumble strips and speed breakers to improve safety which is quite nice

This is not a post to try and find newer ways please do not under any circumstances attempt to take this corner at high speed as it can catch you out.

I just want to know the thoughts of people who usually take it on their commute as well
