fM from that video click on his youtube page and look at the video which shows an sjpd academy class in training. It will show you some new guys going through a pattern -
@DarkNinja75 - also his sitting position during the turns is called counter balancing. If you can throw the bike one way and shift your body weight to the opposite edge of the seat, you throw the bike into a much tighter turn due to your weight counter balancing the bike from dropping. Don't get me wrong Ed is a GREAT rider, but most motor cops are.

@DarkNinja75 -i worked with Ed and am currently still in the motor unit. Pretty much every one of us can make those turns like that. The key is to look to where you are going to go and have constant power to the bike. The "friction zone" you refer to is the "gray area" in the clutch. This means that while you are giving the bike a steady flow of power through the throttle, you r actually controlling the speed with the clutch.

@dementegg He is a motorcycle cop. That was his work (police) bike and his work helmet.

could you possibly explain how he did that? :/

@0Airsnark0 The rough explanation he gave goes something like this. He's in the friction zone of the clutch most of the time he's making those really tight circles. He also drags the rear brake. If you look at his body positioning, he's sitting way to the outside of the direction he's turning. For the quick switchback turns he made, he lets gravity drop the bike, then he catches it with the friction zone and gives it throttle to power out before falling over.
