This whole counter-steering thing is a bit over-stated, IMO. It's a relatively new term used to explain something that just comes naturally... instinctively. Back in the day, before the term was invented the idea of steering a bike wasn't even a 'thing.' I mean there I was back in the '50s learning how to ride a bicycle and no one had to explain how to steer it. I wanted to turn, and the bike turned... at any speed.
Just an observation.
Counter-steering is a real thing Keith. If I'm too wide or too hot in a turn, my salvation is looking through the turn and counter-steering. I can't force the bike into a tighter turn by leaning or will-power but I can crank on as much counter-steer as I need to. Works for me!
