  • How or where can I learn to ride like that?

  • Start with the MSF (motorcycle safety foundation) rider courses (intermediate and advanced).

  • You just don't know how much I wish I could ride like that.

  • Using your handle bar to steer is the best way to control your bike. Leaning is by far second. A lot of riders don't know it, but bike steering is the OPPOSITE OF CAR car and even tricycle STEERING! You have to internalize counter-steering! Push your left handle bar away from you (twist clockwise) to turn left! Don' believe it? Try it on a bicycle to prove it out. However, leaning/balance is key to slow speed tight maneuvers, because you often lock your handlebars all the way for hard turns.

  • @MillerJamesD Well said. I'm betting you were/are a police motor officer?

  • @aligerous Nope, just an enthusiastic rider myself since I as about 8 yrs old on dirt bikes. I've taught a few people, and learned more by having to teach, too. But I'm not "talented" like these competitors!

  • @RiotActI Actually, even a slow bike will keep up with a fast car. Those harleys would have no trouble keeping pace with a corvette (low end sports car) in a straight stretch of road. It's true that it isn't a Hiyabusa, or a gsx-r, which by comparison will run a dodge viper or a Ferrari over (exotic sports car). Power to weight ratio makes any bike with large displacement fast enough to catch 90% of the cars and trucks on the road.

  • Our tax dollars at work

  • Great Job to all! Great video. Hope to rodeo one of this days... MotorCops!!

  • Man! he makes the bike look just weightless!!! I think I can't do it even with my bicycle! AWESOME!

  • FUN TASTIC !!! AWESOME SKILLS !!!

  • Excellent skills displayed here. Very nice post.

  • Nice video. Four and a half stars. :)

  • Other countries issue real motorcycles to their officers, too. Though I think CHP (if not more) utilize a more performance oriented machine. HD's are there to give grandma a ticket for speeding. Full respect to the riders in this vid, though: mad skills.
