For the longest time, I never knew what "countersteer" was either. After it was explained to me, I discovered I had been consciously using it for quite some time (just never had a name for it).
Pushing down hard on the pegs works well too, although for some reason that worked better on my old XJ900 than it does on my Duc. The major difference between them was that the XJ turned a damn sight quicker (skinny tyres).
I'm self-taught (read, "clueless") in terms of the techniques of "hard" riding - I'm really looking forward to the Brands Trackday on 23 June, hoping to learn quite a bit there.
