Hey Rod I couldn't watch it all, I got bored after a couple of minutes. Sorry. He's loopy! He's gotta be a depatch rider  100kmh? What's that, around 60mph? I'd hover around 30mph and I'll go up to 40-45mph on a good day but, depending on the road, I don't risk much more than that for long periods of time.

That guy is not long for this world if he keeps that up. Way to risky weaving through all that traffic.

That's insane. The Japanese must have incredible lane discipline. Here in the states, in that length of time, 15 drives would have switched lanes and than back. The truck drivers must also not have CB radios. Here, they communicate that kind of crap and punish the offender. It actually sounded like he clipped something once or twice. I guess his speedo reading is Kilometers, so he's going a little over 50 mph?

If that's what lane splitting is all about, you can have it. I wasn't that stupid when I was an invincible teenager and sure as he11 wouldn't try it now. Give me a wide lane of my own and I'll bide my time, for many more days to come.

That was quite a ride. Traffic in Japan looks pretty bad.

now that is why you ride a motorbike instead of a car, if you are going to sit in traffic then get a car. you are not supposed to turn up to your funeral in a well preserved body.
