One of the reasons for difficulty with low speed maneuvers is that you may be actually going TOO slow. It's difficult to balance the bike at a snail's pace, sometimes if you speed up just a little, these tight turns are actually easier to do. It's important to look through the turn, give it more throttle, press and turn the bars and look where you want to go. Look down at the ground, that's where you'll wind up.
