This is easy to see in a 10th scale 2wd RC buggy with a fast motor. You can jump it, pull the throttle or jam the brakes, see the buggy rotate about the CG, and crash the shit out of it without getting hurt.
Jason's actions, if that's what he even intended to do, resulted in his rear wheel touching ground a little farther down the track than it would have had he not applied braking.
*Let's assume the suspension is fully extended at the moment of brake tapping for the purposes of this exercise.
I had no idea so much of vital is completely inexperienced with being in the air.
When standing, the rider's body weight + bike weight makes the center of mass higher. When sitting, it is lower. If the rider moves rearward, there is a rearward bias to the center of gravity, and vice-versa with forward. Keep in mind, the rider's influence on the machine is not absolute nor perfect.
