dang! I think I've seen that before! I couldnt do that good on a race bike! Its like his footpegs act as training wheels, and it wont tip over. if they weren't there to balance with he probably wouldn't have been able to flick it back and forth like that. Good head position. always looking where he wanted it to go.

 

Awesome! I've been riding since I was about 5 years old on every dirt bike I could get my hands on and on the street since I was probably 21, but this is good. When you can handle a cruiser like that, you can claim braggin' rights!

 

He's goooood! Classic perfect example of "looking where you want to go"!

I scraped the floorboards on my FLHTC many times in the twisties, but nothing like riding THAT course.
I doubt seriously that scraping "helped" him at all. Those bikes are very well balanced.
Mine was the easiest bike to ride that I've ever owned...once I was moving fast enough to put feet to floorboards.
Doing the "bike games" on it compared to a Sportster was like night and day.

 

Freakin' AWESOME!!!!

 

Rode quite a bit, the floorboards don't help, lol that dude is good tho

 

Pipes dragging like he was riding the Tail of the Dragon. Very nice control.

 

I have an 06 FLHPI that I bought new in late 05 and it's the most agile big bike I have ever ridden. Not that I can ride like those guys though. Thanks for the link. :thumbup:

 

The guy that taught me how to "really" ride was a motorcycle cop. He has videos with him doing the same thing. I took my test on a 08 Street Glide. Had a perfect score. Hard on the cultch though.

 

- 25 points for scraping footboards!! Ok he is good I bet I can do it too on my RK

 

I did the Dragon a couple weeks ago with my Road Star. You should see the underside of my boards!

 

OK, it's a great video. But let's face it, guys...this is a big city motor officer who does that stuff daily weaving between traffic. I'd expect no less.

Yep, he is a excellent rider. Notice how he was able to keep his speed up to get through all those turns.
Most riders would have dropped that bike because they wouldn't have been able to maintain a speed fast enough to stay up.

 

it's all about technique.

looking where you are going, using the front and rear brakes and throttle.

I would bet he didn't touch the rear break once.
