Great Motorcycle control
Just started riding again after a 20+ year hiatus and I am really rusty
 . Check out the control of this guy. I guess uber sticky rubber helps. Unreal Control On Honda CBR600RR - YouTube

I'd seen that posted on ADV; there's a similar one with a policeman on a HD.
One can ride on the street without being able to do the course like the guy on the Honda. Jim

If you watch the head of the cop on the Harley, you'll notice his chin is up and he's looking several seonds ahead of the bike. They teach you that trick in the motorcycle saftey course. When you look all the way through the turn like that, your brain takes over and rounds out the curve for you. It's actually a little eerie. Then, it's just a matter of practice.
Way cool!

He must have some race type tires. I thought that generally you want to get off the bike and reduce the lean angle of the bike so that there is more contact patch area. Unless you have those MotoGP tires in which case you hang off the bike and lean the bike on its side.

Over bake that just a little bit and you will get a wicked high side. Yikes.

I'd bet he's got a few surgery scars to show for all the times he has overdone that...
