I go out and practice figure eights and such drag brake and shoot for handle bar lock but never in my wildest dreams could I get close to what this guy does. One thing I did notice is the passengers seemed to be experienced, seem to sit straight and still, even knew how to mount the bike. I have given rides and some squirm around and others try to lean when they shouldn't, but he was good.

Beyond excellent skills in normal riding, the problem with trick riding is, it takes practice.
Practice on a 1000lb bike means spills and damage to the bike (if not your body).
I'm sure I could learn to ride sidesaddle, so who will loan me their bike for practice (since I don't belong to a motor division of the local cops)? I'm not practicing/dumping mine of course.

Yep, he may be big but he has his center of gravity down pat! Then there's Donnie Williams. Tighter radius, granted, but DAY-UM!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mGhrWBdQ0cU |

I never knew Chris Christy could ride like that! The whole time I was watching it I kept thinking about the posting last week about someones drivers foot peg breaking off.

I was watching the cone course like it was the the last play of the Super Bowl, 1 yard line. Edge of my seat. The second video that is. Both were impressive but crap that police officer was ridiculous.
