No idea what make/model bike this is but I'll give him credit for "playing" his motor:

That's the second strangest thing I've ever seen.

  Actually it was Ted Nugents "Stranglehold" he was playing.  Love that sissy bar and windshield/fairing thing.

I think it's either "Surfing Bird" by the Four Trashmen or "Mr BaseMan" by whoever did that, remember? Either way, it's good he has his face covered.

My Enfield doesn't have anywhere near enough angry bees in the motor to allow for shenanigans like that, only thumpy shenanigans.

It is an impressive display of throttle response. ::) I do wonder at the reason for such abuse of a machine.  :( I noticed that on a couple of occasions, the bike tried to move forward, as though the bike was in gear, and the  "rider" (?) was holding in the clutch.  ???  In spite of the professional looking jockey livery, I doubt that the humanoid astride the machine was much of a rider. :-\
