I don't think anyone really gives two shits if this guy dies. He's a free BOY and can do what he wants.

Personally, if I had a crotch rocket I'd go over 100 too, but I'd be as responsible as I could about it...and I think most people would probably say the same thing.
I agree. Maybe I missed something but I didn't see that he was doing this in prime time traffic weaving in and out of cars. I think we have all seen a lot of idiots on motorcycles before. Being responsible about it is the key. There are a lot of public roads where you could do this without putting anyone else at risk. Even on my last harley trip we were frequently over 90. A bunch of deer slowed me down a little.

I don't know about seasoned. Tenderized, maybe.

From the same thing.
Actually, if you read below the pictures, his friend was killed a week after.

A few inaccuracies have crept into the text accompanying forwarded versions of these pictures. A 2008 variant carried the closing legend "He lived. Wear your helmet!", but unfortunately Brandon Lee did not survive the accident despite his wearing a helmet. Also, the friend of Brandon's who "was killed 1 week before this on his motorcycle going 120+ on Highway 169" referenced in the second example above was 21-year-old Devin Seigal, who was killed in a similar motorcycle accident five days after Brandon's death (and had, in fact, attended Brandon's funeral).

EDIT: I see the photos have already been posted. Click the link to read the story, verified true by Snopes.
And his friend died 5 days later in a similar accident after attending his funeral.:doh!:

What state would make that illegal? That's ridiculous. That poster obviously has an issue with anyone passing him.

That explains the lack of shoes.... that was confusing the hell out of me...
The stunt knocked his shoes off. (rim shot)

You had to have misunderstood.

I highly doubt that. Everywhere I go they do it. I don't know why people get all mad it's not like they are slowing them down or anything.

Cali is the only one that I know is legal, but I haven't looked too closely.

I guess going 100+ without a helmet is againist the law or something LOL.

I just cant help it though. Once you get on those things you want to soar like a bird its not even funny.
Until you come to a sudden stop. :shake:

"Anyone who's spent time in Bay Area traffic knows motorcyclists rarely hesitate to zip between gridlocked cars. It's called ``lane splitting,'' and, to the chagrin of many motorists, California is one of the few states where it's legal."

I say "Ban it". I have a brother in the ground due to this shite Cali crap. Use a F'n lane or go ride in the desert. Bikes riding between cars and not in a lane is incredibly dangerous. As if riding a bike in Cali isn't dangerous already due to idiot drivers in cars.

WOW. Sorry to hear about your brother. At stoplights it's actually safer as you don't get rear ended. As far as gridlock traffic is concerned the only thing that makes it dangerous is the typical road rage Mr. Wheeler that doesn't want anyone passing him. I am not sure what the desert thing is all about.
