Well, I don't have much more to add from a technical standpoint, but I think you will find that the point you transition from counter-steering to point-and-shoot steering will be intuitive.... possibly from day one. For me it seems like it happens from my bodies instinctive response to balance the bike. When I did my MSF, AFTER we did two excesses, the instructors said, "oh BTW, you may not know this, but on exercise A you were all counter-steering, but in exercise B none of you were."
