"The bike is actually 100% electric, so there's no motor vibration, offers a very smooth and stable ride.."
"The motorcycle itself is the ZF9, but to make it camera-worthy we've put a lot of external components on it, and a lot of R&D into it. This is far from riding a normal motorcycle, with upwards of 80 to 100 pounds on the rear end and camera, and then offset with another 60 or so pounds of batteries, it's a very big vehicle to control"
Presumably those 60 or so pounds of batteries are for the camera rig. Pity they couldn't tap into the bike battery for that.
The bike was built by the stuntman's company, Covert Camera Bikes (http://covertcamerabikes.com/portfolio).

Finally - Something to do with the left side of our body... run a camera rig.
I think foot controls would be better suited to raising and lowering.

Definitely pick up the Deadpool Blu-Ray. It's hilarious and there are some excellent special features. That snippet about the zero is a couple minutes in a 1:20:00 long documentary about the movie.
