Nice find. What a beautiful classic bike that has aged really, really well. Even the color scheme still looks timely today.

My favorite part was "pay no attention to sports cars wanting to race at stoplights. We don't need to demonstrate our superiority"

The videos have been removed, but does anyone use his method of moving/turning a heavy bike around while on its center stand? I'm going to try it.

People do that on the sidestand, it's a popular trick.
I should be clear - OTHER people do it. I have enough trouble keeping bikes upright.

It works really well. It's all but effortless to turn your bike in place.
Unfortunately, it also grinds the feet off your centerstand.

It seems I've got to work on my technique. My fat FJR resisted my attempts, only moving several inches. Will be trying again, but there is a lot of expensive plastic at stake.
