He is running the bike on a dyno by the look of it.

Why are you calling him a douche?

Possible one of the least exciting videos of all time.

The gear? Maybe they think it will burst into flames or something, or that the "rider" needs a supply of nitrous oxide to keep his sense of humor intact during the seriously boring task he is engaged in.
On my scoot, getting there is WAY more than half the fun!

To answer the riginal question, I'm going to guess from the hoses and such that they're testing for some sort of feedback. It would help to have the original YouTube page for clues.

The state of his attire may simply be due to the gear they are testing. If they are only testing the jacket and helmet, there's no need for other riding gear. If the bike is properly strapped to the synopsis, safety gear isn't an issue.

No idea why my iPad turned "dyno" into synopsis. This time it tried to turn it into synonym.

Kinda figured that too, I'm just baffled by the hoses on the jacket and helmet.
