Because of the geometry of the front fork (rake and trail), if you lean to one side the bars will initially turn in the opposite direction. It's still countersteering. If you ever ride a bike where this geometry is wrong, which is difficult because it's so necessary, it's very different to ride, and you'll struggle to ride it non-handed.
