I just got off the phone with my brothers friend who just bought and subsequently wrecked his bike today (he owned it for less than 6 hours). It was a rebel 250 so not really a big loss, and it only cost him a few hundred. He also has never ridden a bike before today. Anyway he calls me up and says that the bike is broke and it steers wrong. So I ask what he means and he says that he tried to turn left and the bike went off into a field on the right. He said he's alright but the bike broke (I'm guessing the frame cracked?) in half.

I told him to look up coutersteering.
