Isn't it funny the things you don't notice until it's pointed out!!!
I tried out the counter steering and of course it works, then I started to assess how I rode normally and guess what.....
ON each corner I would set myself up by putting weight on the arm holding bars on the inside of the corner (which caused counter steering) but THEN I would try to turn bike into corner with opposite arm (a pushing effect). This ended up cancelling the counter steering which meant I had to pull bike over with my body weight... now I understand it better my cornering is so much smoother and tighters (specially at low speeds)..
If ya stop learning ya probably dead!!
