    Counter steering is taught in motorcycle defensive driving courses. It’s faster and safer to give the bars a counter-push and release, and let physics do its thing, than to try to fight momentum.

      I rode a 4 wheel ATV after years of riding motorcycles and I kept trying to countersteer instinctively because they have handlebars. Most people on two wheels (myself included) don’t even realize that they’re countersteering.
