Feathering the clutch while making sure you're not leaning into the turn, but counter-balancing the lean the bike (as it turns in while you lean upright) and you can put around in a figure eight all day. It still think it's weird MSF doesn't teach people to use their rear brake for low speed maneuvers... it's the best way to keep control.

Let's try this again with some proof-reading first:

Feathering the clutch while making sure you're not leaning into the turn with your body, but instead counter-balancing the lean of the bike -- as it turns in, you lean upright -- and you can putt around in a figure eight all day. Standard dirt maneuver, but it really allows you to corner slowly if you can find the balance between your body's weight and bike tilt.
