So which way do you lean with a turn?
I used to lean into the turn as I recall from my motorcycle riding days. Watch the bike racers on tv, if they are on a hard surface they lean over with the turn but the dirt bike guys put a foot or knee down which makes appear to be leaning their body weight away from the turn.
Know a guy who bought a new harley a few years ago. First ride he went to make a left turn and instead skidded into the ditch messing up the bike and put him on crutches. He said he later looked at the Harley site or book and it mentions turning the wheel slightly in the opposite direction of the turn and then leaning into the direction of the turn to make it turn. Doesn't make sense to me but I've never ridden a big heavy bike.
When I'm mowing side slope with a 4 wheel mower, I sometimes have to lean uphill to put weight on the uphill wheel when it loses traction for some reason which seems to be the opposite of what some say about turning a 3 wheeler.
