I don't get why people insist on the "low speed" exception. That only works BECAUSE at low speeds you're able to initiate the lean by, well, LEANING, and turning into the lean. At higher speeds this doesn't work simply because you're not able to lean far enough to counteract the vehicle's tendancy to fall the opposite way when you turn the bars.
It is more correct to just say at ANY speed you have to countersteer (or in some way get the center of mass on the 'inside' of the turn relative to the wheels) and not confuse people with the low speed vs high speed bit, even though that's the way it FEELS as a rider.
