"::::::I have no idea how to use this talk page, but I came in because I believe the statement ""Once sufficient lean is established to sustain the desired turn, the rider, or in many cases the bike itself, then steers into the turn to cause the bike to turn in the desired direction and stop the lean from increasing"" is misleading and dangerous to motorcyclists learning about countersteering (at least at speeds greater than 20kph). I believe everything that the user  has stated to be correct. Countersteering must be continued to maintain lean angle, one does not switch it off to stop increasing lean angle. I would suggest this is not as apparent on a bicycle because the rider is unlikely to take such effective lines through corners. A cyclist may countersteer, but too aggressively, meaning they must steer toward the direction of the corner to correct the error and make a broader turn. Because someone on a bicycle isn't travelling particularly fast, they can repeat this process many times, happily wobbling around a corner. 

 ::::::I would suggest that some misunderstanding has occurred in the reading of peer reviewed references. If one can steer to the right to initiate a left hand corner and appropriate lean direction (inwards), why on earth would steering left (toward the corner) not immediately cause the bike to stand up and begin to lean outward? You can't just perform a counter steer action and then reverse the action expecting the bike to go around a corner. Anyway, James R. Davis does a much better explanation of such things. 

 ::::::My reference is not peer reviewed, but it is reviewed in the sense that thousands of motorcyclists agree with this man. I would suggest the following website for anyone wishing to inform themselves about counter steering: Motorcycle Safety - Countersteering.
