[QUOTE="Rider, post: 1197361, member: 20363"] In a turn, the bars are turned slightly in the direction of the turn. I was just watching "Twits of the Wrist - Abridged" on youtube where a pointer was mounted to the bars to demonstrate both the brief counter steer to initiate the turn and bar position in the turn. It's a good video, but I agree in an advanced rider course. I too have not yet been able to find balance in hard riding the twisties, meaning I feel too much weight on the inside bar and the front seems to wash prematurely. That was happening with low front tire pressure (29), so I've pumped that up (38F, 42R) and moved the bar position back a notch to see how it goes - waiting for dry roads, but I could tell immediately the tire pressure was the big issue.
