Would think it was NOT the first time he had ever run such a course either.

Doubt I could do that with training wheels.:lol:

Definitely some serious skills there. Looks like it was some kind of competition because they were timing him.

His bike must have some sort of skid plate.. impressive none the less... but basically he was making a training wheel out of the skid plate.

My local H-D dealer supplies bikes to several local and federal departments.
Judging by the edges of the floorboards that are ground completely away, and the ground down 'crash bars'
I'd assure you there are cops that can, and do push beyond the limits shown in the video.
That guy WAS amazing as I couldn't see any indication of a bike part scrape the pavement.

Back when the earth was still cooling, I used to ride a competition called " observed trials", which means I have ridden a motorcycle through and over places where most humans in their right mind would not attempt to walk or climb. That having been said, those competitions were conducted on bikes which were barely outfitted with wheels a small motor and a frame. +The weighed about the same as my present left boot. In short, they were designed specifically for that purpose and nothing else. I can't even imagine trying to accheive what that officer did with a fully dressed motorcycle of the size that one was, much less do it against the clock. Props to the rider he is most certainly a master of his craft.

Pity his industry doesn't show the same precision with the Fourth Amendment. If they did, we wouldn't need things like the Good Faith Exception (GFE).
