Wow...that is impressive. I wish I could play ride like that on an empty parking lot. I bet there are lots of costly and painful mistakes these stunt riders make. I've seen idiots ride wheelies on their sport bikes down the highway during rush hour.

I met several pro stunt riders at a gas station fueling up their stunt bikes (on back of pickup trucks) and ask them what's one of the hardest stunt to perform? They said it's doing a slow balanced wheelie going in super tight circle (i.e. nearly pivoting on rear wheel).

If I were a stunt rider I would try to do a balanced wheelie while doing smoking rear tire burnout! Have anyone seen this performed yet?
