Interesting VID I was kinda surprised how cars moved over for them and how oncoming traffic moved over for them also when they were heading head on, on the wrong side of the road or on the center line. Anyone know what state or city this is on??? These cagers impressed the hell out of me.

I noticed at about 5:20 into the vid another motorcyclist was oncoming close to the middle as well.

If he had been ripping it the same way I doubt they would have seen each other before there next life.


They were really ripping it on the highway.


Godspeed

Video shows really blurry on my phone so I can't really see but the license plates on cars appear to me to be European and the two trucks they pass in first minute or so are also Euro style flat nose .
Can you see or read the street signs ?
Like you say the cagers are awfully courteous which again points away from USA .
When I was in Italy last summer all two wheelers were driving same way , not that fast but they would ride into oncoming traffic and the cars would give way even for scooters .

Yeah, Italians have a "motorcycle culture", due to all of the scooters on their roads. Unlike many other countries, Italians don't fear/hate motorcyclists.
 
Well speedo is kmh only so I don't think its the US. At 3:28 in the video there is a sign that says Markychori, and thats Greece, That would be my guess.
 
That is just straight up reckless stupidity, putting themselves and others in danger! Take that crap to the track!
 
Different Countries treat motorcycles differently. Kph Speedo. Drivers see alot more motorcycles and it's common for them to make way...
 
Though I don't like what the riders are doing....that looks similar to the Autobahn. Most drivers have better sense on the road and don't HOG the fast lane like in the US. If you aren't passing they stay out of the left lane because something FAST will come your way... :thumbsup:

Nothing like cruising at 135mph in the right lane and getting passed like you are stopped by a Porsche, Audi, BMW, whatever....hammering it! :beerchug:

Some of those european riders get away with murder compared to what we can do in the U.S. :poke: thats why all the crazy high speed vids have the speedo's in km/h.....lucky basta*ds :laugh:
 
Why is it that when the road is 2 lanes and the traffic is heaviest that is when it seems the bikers are pushing it the hardest? When the road widens and traffic thins out they seem to be just cruising. It's almost as if they're seeking that rush of danger. ???

Maybe it's just me.
 
Scariest part of splitting cars is if your not going fast enough, you give them a chance to see what your doing, then they freak out and turn into you

It's not the states. Different set of rules.. Stop being judgmental. In some countries, if you're going slow and you see lights flashing behind you, you HAVE to move. And if you don't and there's a wreck.. Guess what, you get the ticket. Not to mention, they are taught a lot more about driving compared to what we consider driving schools. So not in as much 'danger' as you perceive them as there's a chance they are within their driving rights. Never been to Greece, so I don't know.
 
Now the US video scared the crap out of me.. Totally new set of rules.. And the other drivers don't play nice.. haha.
