Default Pure Skill, or Pure Stupidity (vid)

Pure Skill, or Pure Stupidity

I cant tell which one

YouTube - Lane splitting Los Angeles


damn @ 2:14

Its sped up of course, but still.

I simply cannot process data that fast. Usually in traffic, i need to predict everything everyone is doing before they do it. Idk how he can do this blazing past these cars at that speed. Amazing.

Up until I saw the video that skittle posted I would of said that he was a pretty damn good rider at juding whats in front of him, but after seeing the normal speed video thats not really anything special.

There's nothing special about this rider. I spent a week in LA & Hollywood last October. Driving there is the complete opposite of FL... 95% of people watch out for motorcycles, use turn signals, and drive at a consistent speed. I did see a few bikers in LA splitting lanes at double the speed of traffic... didn't seem very bright considering the lanes are 1-2ft narrower and there's a lot more semi's. The pizza boys on mopeds and 250s were splitting lanes within an inch of cars.

neither skill or stupid. lil crazy at times, but its doesnt take much skill to hold the bike straight while riding between two objects
I also dont think its that stupid, actually I have lane split before and feel the best time to do so is when there are cars on both sides of you.... the operators of the cars already know they cant get over/switch lanes because of traffic/cars already in the other lane so you are less likely to get taken out by a sudden left/right line switch

need tires (take offs)? PM me
need a deal on a track day? PM me

disclaimer: I sell used tires (take-offs), these tires have been used at Jennings, Homestead, etc. (road courses for those that dont know) therefor these tires are more used up on the sides than in the middle,
