Sarah Lezito is a French freestyle stunt rider who just released a video of how she likes to play on a Yamaha Niken. The rider showcases what is possible to do on a three-wheel machine from power slides to wheelies, stoppies, burnouts, donuts and other tricks.
It’s not often we have a chance to see how a professional rider makes a three-wheel machine wheelie and stoppie like any other motorcycle can. This time it was the Yamaha Niken the weapon of choice and after some training, the rider managed to pull a couple of stunts on the bike.
Sarah Lezito is considered the best stuntwoman in the world. This may be a fancy statement, but her motorcycle stunt career states that she knows a thing or two when it comes to motorcycle riding. She was Scarlett Johansson’s double in the motorcycling scenes in The Avengers 2 movie and left a lot of riders behind her at the stunt riding world championships.
For Tana, stunt riding is more than a hobby, she sees it as a sport and cautions against conflating it with reckless racing through traffic. “It’s unfortunate that people think stunt riding is entertainment but its actually a sport and has got its own value. All stunt riders must be aware of that and shouldn’t take public roads for granted,” comments Tana.
