Anybody on this board who can set up the cones exactly like this and do this stunt in less time than the officer does it.....no cones knocked down......I'll buy them Rusty's bike....

 
Ha, I'm not even sure I could paddle my bike thru there without knocking a cone over.
 
I dont think I could do that on a bicycle...and I might even knock down a cone walking it.

Nope. It will turn much quicker under power and leaned over.

Heard tell that exact course is going to be the new test standard to obtain the motorcycle endorsement on your license :eek2:

The only cone you're going to be allowed to knock down is one from Baskin-Robbins :rofl:

Yeah. A) Your "paddle" bike would be way to wide. And B) the course is on dry land.

That guy has skills. Some of those overseas police competition videos are pretty amazing as well.
 
I know the videos are pretty good but if ya'll ever have one of these happen near you, it is worth it to go watch it in person.
Simply amazing.

The 2010 Southwest Competition was in Tucson a couple of weeks ago. Lisa, who rides for Scottsdale (and the only female in a 5 state competition) placed 14th overall, but the killer rider was a Tucson PD officer who has been riding motors for 27 years.

The best riders went through the course in about 60-61 seconds. This officer rode it in 67 seconds. So what, you say?


He did it sidesaddle. :rider:


The H-D riders didn't stand a chance. I don't think any of them broke the 65 second barrier. The ST1300s and the BMWs ruled the day. What was neat to see was the number of officers wearing full-face flip helmets and armored jackets.

Here's a few action shots.
