Notice how the guy on the KTM has his left hand off the bar to look behind him.
When doing a head-check, your shoulder tends to move with your head, which puts pressure on the bar in that direction, so you turn in that direction.
And I'm finding out it doesn't take much pressure on a 250r to turn these things.

Try to keep your shoulders straight when turning your head.
My 2c.
