I have used weighting the outside peg for years, and as for counterstearing goes, everyone does it, but when you use it to your advantage it changes how you ride forever! I have a friend that just bought a new CBR600RR and he said he was having problems with the bike not wanting to turn. I laughed and told him what was wrong, I expained about counterstearing, he called me the next day and he was amazed at how his bike handles now. It is scary that people are still out there today without the proper fundementals, to be better, safer, and have more fun!
