Sure, that's impressive and all, but can he pass the DMV circle test without going outside the lines on a bike that size?

I noticed that... so maybe there's something to be said about apes after all?

I used to think the same thing when I road sport bikes, then after having my Roadie a few months, I found out it was much better to go the other way. Still... sometimes old habits die hard and I catch myself hanging off.

That is some impressive riding.
I seem to remember hearing or reading that practicing for that will cost you a clutch in short order.
For anyone interested, watch the video "Ride Like a Pro". I believe it's presented by a retired motor officer - very informative and I can understand why going through his complete program would cost you a clutch.
