Is stunt riding an art form or a crime?

Some say it's a crime, other say it's the fastest growing motor sport. It's good to hear the ROC "Ride of the Century" went down safe and sound today in St. Louis. In honor of the event, here's stunt rider Nic Kroeze doing his thing.

I agree with @ducatidemon and a lot of you, it shouldn't be a crime to do a safe wheelie (by safe I don't mean, long, feet of pegs wheelies) with no other cars around. But I don't think people should be doing endos, and circular burnouts at red lights.

stunt riding should not be illegal on public roads if the rider is responsible and if the roads arent crouded and if the roads are in safe condition (fresh pavement, dry, large enough to correct errors,etc)

Doing a wheelie on the street should be a crime, pretty sure it is in most cases. Off the street, however, BRRAAAAP

I have a CBR600F3 that I stunt sometimes at the local lot. However, on the way to and from, it's Mister Clean Marine.

There were two deaths in St. Louis. Hardly went down safe. It's a shame they (authorities and ROC working together) can not find a venue to do this off the public streets.

@JamesL, @karlfitt I love watching the stunters redefine what a motorcycle can do, but I have to agree it has no place on the public roads

It's a crime when you do it on a public road like that

Doing a wheelie should not be a crime.
