On a good tire you'll feel a kind of gritty feeling in the bars as it tries to get hooked up. All I really do here is get on the gas a little to unload the tire, maybe stand it up a bit. I only crap myself when this happens at 100 or over, now.
Stage 2: It slides enough that it weights your knee. Here, I (mostly instinctively) push with my knee, get on the gas a bit, and stand it up some to let it hook up. Now you're wide, so don't expect to finish the turn the way you would normally - adjust!
Stage 3: I feel the bars turn in - a classic 'tuck.' At this point there's probably quite a bit of weight on your knee. Same as stage 2, but you need a little more luck to save it.
