Thats just nuts, in Russia I think.

Any one who rides like that deserves to wind up under the wheels of a truck, tho the drive doesnt need the angst.

That's not what is meant by "lane filtering" as defined in NSW.
That's "lane splitting" among other things (like dicing with death etc).    :-(((
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

1. Was that Youngster on his new BMW?

2. He'll get the full use of his tyres, no flat spot on top.

3. After Few hundred K's of that you'd really be looking forward to the bed at the Motel.

4. It keeps the throttle cable lubricated

5. You really get to enjoy the scenery when you watch the replay of the video

And lastly number 6  :eek

Thats a big bike to be "filtering" like that!  he's punched it through quite a few narrow spaces...  Not too keen on doing that...

Saw a "rider" yesterday doing similar on the Bruce Hwy, 2 minutes later the boys in blue were following, 30 sec after they passed us they gave up...

Not a smart move... Oh well, his life I guess...

Blokes, you all need to look at the big picture.

Ask yourself why the rider was doing what they did, wife may have been on the back and going into labour and the hospitals are always a million miles away during peak hour traffic and ambo's are like coppers, never around when you need one.

I would have preferred he checked his mirrors a bit more as I only saw him move his head once during the entire clip.

..... or he could have simply been an idiot with a death wish.   Just one unexected lane change and he's a dead man.  :eek

If he was taking his wife to hospital, then I think she has fallen off or bailed. No way a pillion with any sense would sit through that.

 :well   DIESEL !!!   :-(((  I was expecting to see the last few seconds of that clip ending in flying bits of plastic and the rider greating mother earth in an undignified manner. I'm sure it won't be long however.
Getting wind in my hair while I still have some.

I,m not sure that any Minister from any state would be interested in watching this, might just undermine the argument for filtering to become legal....................just saying............................................. :wht11
