Very nice... I have always sed any idiot can ride fast in a straight line... but to be able to maneuver at slower speeds and tight turns takes a talented rider... lots throttle, clutch and brake control as well as head and eye placement along with motor placement of your turns to seting up the turns.... I have taken the motorcycle training thru work and you can flip those big Harleys arounds even easier than the 14...

He is most certainly a great rider, with that much control and very small radius turn ability.

Fuzz4141 is right, an HD can be ridden in a tighter slow speed S-turn and loops than a ZX14, unless the rider is really good like the guy in the video.

ZX14s don't turn very good at low speeds, nor very good at small radius (around the cone stuff) 180 degree turns. When I took mine to the MSF Experienced Rider course, I almost flunked the Figure 8 event in the exam because it had excruciatingly small radius 225 degree turns in. My ZX14 labored something awful.

The guy in the video would have aced MSF ER.
