Just to add this explicitly, to expand on some specifics, motorcycles have the added complexity of angular momentum and its effects. As you mention, turning the wheel effects your lean angle through angular momentum conservation. The cone then is the dominant factor causing the bike to turn.
The speed matters because as the speed is faster, a smaller angle change in the handlebars corresponds to a bigger sideways tilt motion of the bike.
