Just being picky but mod1 and mod2 are tests rather than lessons. They are for you to demonstrate you are a competent rider as a result of your DAS/motorcycle lessons.
I passed my test feeling good only to realise I've only just started learning. Some stuff is intuitive, such as the fact that you always countersteer even if you're not conscious of it. Conscious contersteering does give you more control as long as you don't think about the physics midcorner.
A rider friend of mine said "push right to go right" and that's saved me a few times when I've started to panic or get target fixation.

Opinions are like A**holes, Everyone has one. Some people seem to have more than one though which is a bit odd.
