Yup, just more saddle time. The biggest and best fact about riding is learn to trust your bike. It really doesn't want to fall over once it is on the move. Counter steering into a curve is a hoot and all bikes just need a hint of counter steering to set you up for a grin or 3. One of my coffee buddies spent 2 years fighting a 1100 cruiser around curves until he learned to trust his bike. Now he regularly scrapes the floorboards and giggles all the way. Not bad for a guy who never rode a bike until his 60's.
