I've taken and taught Motorcycle Safety Foundation (MSF) courses. I've got a motorcycle racing license, and won a state championship in 2014.

I'm also an aerospace engineer with a lot of physics background.

A turn on a 2 wheeled vehicle at anything above walking speed is initiated by turning in the opposite direction of the turn. Once the lean angle and turn is established, the steering wheel is then returned to the direction of the turn, allowing the vehicle to track along the arc created by the slight offset in the contact patches.

I tried to find a good video that demonstrated this part, but didn't have any luck with a couple minutes on youtube.
