Presuming you aren't just trolling, next time you're out, find a long straight bit of road (motorway, dual carriageway etc) where there isn't much traffic about and with as little as possible pressure from your hands on the bars, try the following:
1) Try steering the bike with your waist and hips.
2) Gently push on the right bar and see which way the bike goes, then try with the left.
See what happens.

I thought the same re trolling but I may have said the same thing until I watched twist of the wrist. Keith Code may be in the church of scientology but he really knows his motorbiking. His history on Wikipedia is interesting too.
The police riders handbook to better motorcycling is also good but a video paints a thousand words and totw is plain awesome in spite of the acting which is hilarious.
Opinions are like A**holes, Everyone has one. Some people seem to have more than one though which is a bit odd.
