So I decided to test it out. Riding along at 120kph and pulled gently on the right handlebar, sure enuf the bike wants to go left and vice versa. Usually I just ride without analysing what it is I am actually doing so when I really thought about what I was doing it was kinda hardcase, the physics of it is really quite interesting.

Well my point is that counter steering is just the natural way of riding, however unless ya really think about it ya probably don't realise thats exactly what you're doing LOL.
