I can split lanes fast...but it looks to me like the video is sped up a little. Not to take anything away from the guy, cause he is one badass splitter, but something does not look right.

ditto. Ghostrider wannabe. didn't quite have the cojones. in any case, did anyone else really watch the keyring? IMO, up til 4 minutes, it was flicking around way too fast for the amount of moving or street bumps (or gravity). i will bet that entire video was sped up...

He did not have the balls. He never kept a steady momentum.

Looks like he covered the clutch most of the time, but even if not, he almost stalled it when trying to run through the stopped traffic and then which I would say he "cheated" on by just running on the opposing lanes which seemed fairly empty at times. Not too much skill there, just stupid luck.

I'm just stoked that it wasn't a GSXR for a change!!! It looked weird but I chocked it up to the camera angle and type. I never liked my GoPro wide for that reason.

When I split fast using the EX500, the weakeat part is the brakes. With my old ZX10 it was just as wide, had more power, much better brakes and rock soild stablity on turns. Easiest bike I've ever used. My 09 ZX6r isn't bad either...

You mean the Black Prince. He was splitting traffic while Ghostrider was shitting his pants and wiping it on his face.
