Good Guy Motorcyclist Saves Coffee

was it a staged stunt?
 
A couple of things I don't understand.
1. He picked up the coffee cup with his throttle hand. Eh?
2. Took both hands off the bars later on later on, something I have not been able to do,
or scared of doing.
I guess he is a stunter.
 
Boo. I just got home and I was gonna post this! :thumbup Beat me to it! :)

Funny vid, It made me laugh inside every time he giggled.

You ever ride a bicycle and take your hands off the bars? Same thing, not that difficult.

Funny video though, I like how he's looking at the car to his left like, you see this shit dude?

Not hard at all. Roll off throttle slow if your engine has large amounts of engine braking so it doesn't catch you by surprise. Easy.

I wouldn't have saved the mug. Maybe tried to point it out. But not grab the mug.
 
Thanks to the repost in general, I got to see this video. Motorcycles are fun, M'kay? :teeth

I did before,yes.

I am not that confident to pull this stunt on my bike because the chances of something going wrong are high. Say the lady pulls to her left because she thought the lane was clear? You are likely f'd.

I tried taking my hand off the throttle and the bike slowed down due to engine braking. I guess it takes a lot of practice.
