I wasn't until a few weeks back. I was the same as you said above, hanging off like a monkey, or countersteering like a policeman.
Then I went for a play on twisties that I know very well (A470/A5), and it all came together nicely.
I have mirror extenders on my pointy, and it got to the stage at times where I was hanging off so much I could see my sunglasses in the mirror, screaming at 7k ish, and positively counter-steering. I could probably push the bike harder too, but I'm getting to the point where I need new rubber on it.
It takes time, and patience. Just one variable at a time.
