I know right! Here lately I've been thinking maybe I should ditch my floorboards for forward controls so my bike can handle better in the turns.

I would like to see the same demonstration done on a real road surface (pot holes, tar snakes, antifreeze / oil / water spots, 1" difference due to cracks, etc.) instead of a 100% level, pristine surface.

No doubt that he faces the same during his everyday duties, and damn sure he'll handle it a lot better than the average Joe.

The most important skill he is demonstrating is LOOKING where he wants to go and not where he is at. The bike follows the head and eyes. ....And yes he is probably more capable than the rest of us in dealing with potholes, tar snakes, gravel etc...

I can't believe they are still trying to pass that video around, clearly that is some other guys head photo shopped on during my ride....
