There nothing deep or special about counter steering or bending your knees so leave it alone, stop focusing on it and just ride and focus on more important things like brake & throttle control or body English. By the way if its body English in the English language does the mean it body French in the French language 
Racing and riding motorcycle for 10 years from an amateur to world level and it wasn't till I retired and started street riding and visiting Moto forums that I first learned about counter steering. Kinda odd to think counter steering being so important to learn that its completly not mentioned in any level of racing I've competed in |
It is why there are no great riders who did not start on a motorbike at a very young age. Us Johnny-come-latelies have to think about thing like that before it settles into muscle memory in a brain that is not as malleable as when you started.
