Holy crap!  And to think I put my foot down once during the MSF test.  Now I'm really embarrased!

Wow!

At first I thought something awful was going to happen (like he/she was going to drive into a crowd or something).

Pretty cool though, no matter how you slice it, eh?

I'd have fallen over by the second cone. Anyone old enough to remember "Laugh-In" and Arte Johnson on his tricycle? You get the picture.  ;) ;D

Gotta hand it to that one. It would be dull as hell to watch if you did not know how hard that is to do.

What are you guys on about? Doesn't everyone test ride a used bike like that before you buy?

That's amazing... The bike must be incredibly well balanced, because his butt never moves in the seat.  In order to take a corner even remotely SIMILAR to the ones he's doing I would have to hang half my ass off the bike and cling on with the corner of my butt cheek.

      Thanks Sam,
                   
                     That was truly entertaining. It looks like fun although I know it would also be stressful.
      I could get into something like that. In the past, I've been on roads that were pretty twisty and
      you almost felt like you were going to meet yourself in some of the curves. It's been a Loooong
      time though. Thanks again Sam.  Later on, Bill :) ;)

And we are talking about a VFR, that is, a 750cc motorcycle. That's impressing.

I think that might be a VFR400, which is a nimble little bike, but still an impressive performance.

The same site has another interesting video - a Chrysler Tomahawk being ridden above walking speed.  Watch it twitch around.  A little scary -
