That's some throttle control and balance. My mx bike is far more versatile than any street bike I've ever been on. It can take a licking and keep on ticking, too. I wonder how light that bike is he's on? He tosses it around with ease.

it's gotta be lightened up some but figure 150 to 200 pounds dry weight so add another 20 or so for fluids

There are bikes manufactured specifically for that called Trial bikes and you can buy one just like any other bike. Companies like GasGas make those kind. I've seen videos of people doing that on rocks in river and such where it's wet. It's pretty cool to me and would awesome to throw in Freesytle with the flips and everything. Either way that's got to take some practice.
