and I know as a "motorcyclist" you certainly cannot claim these skills are not valuable street riding skills, unlike being able to counter-steer or brake hard at @ 175mph on a track.
In fact, for the purpose of this thread and trying to relay real and safe and practical infos to a potential new rider, the skills at the speeds in this vid are head and shoulders more important.

Going through pylons at a walking pace is impressive to you? To be safe on the road you need a responsive ride, one that is light, not top heavy and has stopping power. Name one Harley that has that besides maybe a Vrod? I could do better then that guy on a Goped. Yes those riders do have skills, but put them on a better ride and what would happen then?
I was a mechanic for the City of Ft lauderdale police motorcycle fleet back then they had Kawasaki KZ1000 loaded up with all the gear that they needed. They were death traps anything over 60 MPH and it was a wild ride, the cops fucking hated them.
Then they switch to Harleys, they could not believe how much worse they were, they were stunned.
