I'm not expert but kiss that mirror. You look centered on the bike, which is way better than being crossed up but start getting your body into it a little. Where are your toes?

i'm no expert, but here's what i see. bend the arms, drop the head (look through corner), hang off a bit more, it looks like you're leaning away from the bike.

Drop your inside shoulder. It will help keep your wrist and arm in line with the inside grip. This action also helps in the "kissing the mirror" technique.
