Can't really comment on why some bikes hug the yellow line so much. However I do know why they generally will not ride the middle of their side. That's where cars will drip any oil, coolant, etc that one may be losing. Have you even notices the "dark" center patch in the middle of the lane? Hit something new (wet) and bang, your going over. Mighty sarcastic opening to the beginning of this thread by the way. No, I do not own a bike.
