Usually, these videos showing some clown ride around with a total & disregard for their safety and others around them feature some sort of & crotch rocket sportbike.&
Well, this motorcyclist filmed in New Orleans, Louisiana is here to & show you that you can get up to just as many tricks on a nice, cushy & cruiser.According to KSLA News, Monica Rochefort spotted the daredevil rider on I-10 just east of New Orleans on Monday. He appears to be riding a Harley-Davidson Street Glide, a big old & bagger of a bike that isn’t usually the top choice for stunting fools. & In the video, Rochefort sounds understandably shocked to see him booking & it down the left lane while leaning back and reclining like he’s on a & beach chair, his hands nowhere near the handlebars.
Now granted, the “Look ma, no hands” routine is just about the least & dangerous trick you can do on a motorcycle. Bikes want to stay upright & once they’re in motion, and riders use their body weight to lean into & turns rather than just twisting the handlebars left and right. The & mystery rider demonstrates this after realizing he’s being filmed and & flashing a smile; he leans way out to the right to change lanes (then & left again to straighten out), pantomiming paddling a boat before & exiting the highway.
But is the whole thing really that dangerous? The Street Glide has & cruise control, and between that and the physics behind a moving & motorcycle, it looks like the rider was in control the entire time & despite never touching the handlebars. Then again, all it would take is a & surprise pothole or a small piece of debris on the roadway to send him & flying into the path of other cars—whose drivers would then be involved & in a probably-fatal collision through no fault of their own. Plus, he & actually leans all the way back at one point, meaning he couldn’t see & the road at all for those seconds.
It’s probably a great feeling to make strangers smile with your & seemingly-harmless antics on a bike. But there are better (and far & safer) places to do so than a public highway.
