Have a look at this if you think the NC700X is not agile enough...

Those guys could ride a Mumbai elephant through that course at a high rate of speed.
I would hate to be in the same class as that rider. Talk about setting the bar high. Wow!
At least I have a goal now.

Not 100% sure, but AFAIK it is not a class, but a ride test for the japanese police

But,,,, after seeing that. I suck
Thanks for the video by the way! I want to be able to ride like that! I guess I'll need some crash bars sooner than Thought.

That was pretty impressive. Ditto on the wishing I could ride like that. In time maybe I'll get to be almost that good..
This guy is very good also, and he is riding a big girl!

3 important keys, clutch friction point, rear brake use and vision. Look where you want to go, not at the ground.

Hi, I do not mean to knock any credits from this guy, but if given that it is HIS JOB (these guys usually are training 5 days a week, 8 hours a day on this course for PERFORMANCE reasons), I would not say "wow" too loudly. I have seen many precision drills (not just motorcycles) which can be perfected. It is just his JOB. Given a chase scenario, it does NOT mean this guy is better than the rest. Unless he can mesmerise the criminal with his moves while his colleagues arrest the criminal.

True, but he still did it flawlessly. Without knocking over a single cone, that is note worthy in my opinion. Even though people train quite a bit to perform like that it is still pretty amazing to do it that well. Even with all that training, not every one could do it that well.

Sometimes it is good enough to make the take. Check the officer in the upper right observing the ne'er-do-well over the centerline in a turn...
Now observe the turn-around...
The linked brake crowd may be interested to see that the turn was done with rear brake only - not because he didn't know where the front lever was, but because he didn't want any front brake trying to stand the bike up while he was trying to lean it into his turn.
Big Jay nailed it....

I agree. I love my ABS system, specially in the front, but one of the things in my TODO list is to investigate how I could deactivate that "combined" brake thing. I know where is the front lever and where is the brake pedal, and I want to be able to brake as I want. I hate that combined system
