He's gotta be scraping the boards if not actually leaning on them. Pretty
good either way.

Their aerobatic team, Frecce Tricolori is the same way.
They do some crazy sh.t, but they also run into each other
a lot.

I'm impressed that he could remember what the turns are.

How'd they manage to isolate the bike to only speed IT up? All the action
around the bike seems to be in real time.

How are you going to flick a bagger from floorboard to floorboard that
fast? Further proof is that there is only one sound that that is sync'd
to the video, it sounds funny and I think that was added to further
fool the viewer.

I think it's real, I have a buddy who is a motor=officer, he has had
extensive training on how to handle the bike in such a fashion.

The tricks involve use of rear brake, clutch & throttle, in combinations
that cause the bike to handle those tight turns.

The video did not look doctored to me at all. Like someone else pointed out
earlier, the other people and objects in the video were moving at what
appeared to be normal paces. Too many people to be a prank, and too many to
be a sped up video. I've seen people that are good at that kind of tight
riding, but I have not seen anyone that good before now.

yeah if he was really good he would put it in reverse and do it just as
fast....

Whats the point of doctoring it? Either the man can ride or he can't, no
reason to lie about it.

I'll agree. Used to see a guy at a local rally that never got beat in
the slow races, he could turn the forks to the lock and sit there.
Always wondered if he was undercover, his riding skills just seemed too
good.

Sure...you feather the clutch and feather the rear brake and TURN, turn
turn.

I't not the turning part, it is flicking 700lbs of hog from floor board
to floor board that fast.
Once you get that mass moving you have to stop it and to rotate it from
left to right that fast I don't think is possible. The f.cker would
just keep going and roll over like a dog wanting his belly scratched.

Flicking a FLHT from side to side swiftly, is really pretty easy....when
yer brave... or drunk! :)

Sadly, I have done _SOME_ of those moves SOBER, without remembering how
the next day... like when I was following Len(AH104) when I tried to
keep up with him when I rode into NYC with him, between city traffic!

That ride to that one place, (The Something Inn... next to the river)I
forget now) was a real test that scared the crap outa me.

All I remember now was meeting-n-eating with another, shaking like a dog
sh.tting razor blades, it was hot as hell, and I rode home alone.. slow!

It's a basic "MAKE it fall", then grab the throttle(or use the
appropriate brake) to upright it!
