Holy shit.

I'm sorry but from 4:20 onwards i can't believe that's his actual speed: I've been riding sports bikes since i was a 16 and splitting traffic that fast just isn't possible IMO. It looks like it's been adjusted somewhat...and if not, the guy has a death wish.

I watched it twice because I thought the same thing. I tried to key in on surrounding traffic and it's speed to see if it has been speed up. I can't really tell.

The guy is fricking nutz! Sped up or not. I like the part when he passes the other motorcycle. I wonder if that guy tried to follow.

Its a repost but it is still a very stupid thing to do.

Isn't that the only way to commute?

I think the very wide-angle camera exacerbates the speed effect when he's lanesplitting. But yeah, the bike seems to tilt pretty damn quick.

That was terrifying just watching! Either he has superhuman reflexes or some sort of force field around him! I need a glass of something to calm me down.
