Ha, yah gotta love the comments. Personally, I think it is fantastic. Also, love the sound of the engine when the wind noise is out of the way.

Guy drives like he WANTS to have an accident.

He's obviously a sport bike rider who's a tad bolder than I am, but this is what it's like up here with lane splitting and crazy traffic everywhere. Sometimes it's best to just accelerate and leave the Yahoos in your mirror than plod along and dodge the poor drivers.

The cars in the video seem to be well behaved. In Boston he wouldn't last long. "You tube" is full of videos showing why it's not a good idea, it's a deadly idea!

...and in the comments it's got 16" wheels. Details, anyone?

 

[Xian Forbes]

Deadly? Well, lane splitting is legal everywhere across the globe except 49 US states... So clearly it's not that dangerous.

Yeah, and most of those lane splitting accident video's are from those countries!!

 

[Xian Forbes]

Maybe from the Asian continent which is it's own brand of crazy. They don't have plumbing in some of those countries, let alone rules of the road.

They don't have plumbing because they built those big luggage racks with the pipe.
