Wow, those Japanese motorcycle-license tests are really difficult! :eek2::lol2:

I wonder which bike is the quickest through that coarse? I need a place to practice that type riding. Certainly some transferable skills into the street. You would be hard to catch in a parking lot!:lol2:
 
Being able to ride like that would definitely be helpful when moving my bikes around the garage.
 
It blows my mind that they can even remember what to do....
 
It's got a handlebar mod for better control, I assume, but wonder about the gearing. That looks like a good size rear sprocket.
 
I'd like to see that done on an R1150GSA.... :giveup:

Actually, I found my 1150 GS to be one of the easiest bikes to maneuver at low speeds because it is so well balanced. With its low torque and wide bars it might do better at that stuff than you think ;-)
 
Is this: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=69CkRGY5MLU"]Moto Gymkhana[/ame] the same video on youtube? I can't get to the link.

If it is, as I suspect, then he's got some skill.
 
So, do you consider this to be low speed maneuvering?

:tab Yes. I doubt he ever got much over 25-30mph in that video. It involves heavy acceleration, but not high speeds. I have seen a lot of vids like this where the riders are on the ZRX-1100/1200s, which work well because of their upright seating, wide bars, and massive low end torque.
