I asked to see the video -- regardless of those factors it'd still be interesting IMO; I'd also love to see him on the NoBS bike.

Weighting the inside pegs (Body Steering) is another way to initiate lean which also initiates a turn but it is not counter-steering. Because body steering keeps pressure/weight off the arms when done right, it allows us to fine tune our turns better which is why most Champions put more focus on body steering (in combination with the brakes) as it is more of a scalpel. Make sense? I have a video somewhere of me going down a super-twisty road with no hands to disprove that counter-steering is the only way to steer a motorcycle.
