Lane splitting
This guy is on the 10r forum. Thought I would share, and let all of you discuss it. He also claim that he hit 103mph doing this once

god damn, I was just waiting for someone to switch lanes on him. Is he somewhere it's legal?
I am guilty of doing this, but not in that much traffic.

I wont do it because I live in NJ.
If I were in Cali, it would be a different story all together.

I like fast but not in that tight of quarters...unless I'm in a NASCAR mobile.

Yes, the vid says he's in LA at the beginning...in which case it would be legal. But over 60 mph? Fuck him.

I agree with you, that's not a smart speed to be lane splitting.

In Cali, they move over for the bikes, so yes, if your doing the speed limit it seems okay to split.

Pretty ballsy. I usually tuck my mirrors in before I split 'em. Never that fast though. 40 TOPS.
