We all counter steer instinctively and it would be impossible to lean into a turn if we didn't. With a very heavy bike (like a motorbike) we might have to consciously counter steer. Which is probably why it gets discussed more by bikers.
I respectfully disagree. When you turn a bike while riding no hands, countersteering cannot be the initial event, as you have no direct input to the steering mechanism (handlebars)
