I don't know where you're from but in Canada we use our right hand on the throttle and signal with the left. And making a throttle stick is easy if you want to do it.

Indicating with your left hand? Even when turning right? How do you do that?

He is no more or less a "tool" than adrenalin junkies the world over, getting their highs from partaking in dangerous activities or stunts. He looks extremely skilled, so the chance of him having an accident are probably not much more than the average Joe holding on with both hands. More than likely this was choreographed and posted online especially to get a rise out of people like you. If so - job well done!

Your comment is utter cr*p!

And I am a motorcyclist of some 50 years. A small sudden change in the road surface (along with many other things) could throw him off his bike, when that would probably not happen if he had both hands on the handle bars!

 

My strike through.

Lol relax dude! That guy has serious skills. He probably rides better with no hands than you do with them, especially taking into consideration your advanced age.

Lucky for that, but being an adrenalin junkie is a different outlook on life.

 

 

BTW, I use both hands when I ride. I don't take unnecessary risks. I'm only 40 years into my motorcycling career but nearly died at age 23 due to no fault of my own.

Just to show that Thailand does not have a monopoly on riving stupidity:

arm straight out indicates left turn and arm bent at elbow with hand pointed skyward indicates right turn

First time of heard of that?

What I find surprising is that he was wearing a helmet and not driving against traffic.

This is obviously a doctored video. What does this guy have, cruise control on his bike?

Probably a 200 baht one from Tesco....so overpriced for that brain.
