If you are going to light it up on public land, don't be surprised when LEO's don't take kindly to your actions.

I'm moderator on a large San Francisco Bay Area forum and we talked about this with roughly the same results. Virtually everyone agreed the guy was riding like a douchenozzle and many thought the LEO overreacted. Imho, he acted appropriately considering the types of folks they encounter on a regular basis.

One of the things our forum really tries to encourage is track days. Go get some real skills and use them in a safe and fun environment. We have several nice tracks for motos in California and it makes it a lot easier to get out there when there are so many great choices.

Want to go fast and wick it up? Go to the track.

Who doesn't love getting dirty once in a while?
