    It's FILTERING, NOT lane splitting!

    Based in my experience, my definition of a marked departure from the lawful rate of speed is simple: over +20 Km/h from car flow speed. At that rate I am able to prudently adjust ...blah blah. It seems that it is up to the officer to judge the "prudency" or the the court judge....both of which...

    It's FILTERING, NOT lane splitting!

    I actually read the legal definitions of ONT REG 455/07 and I agree with them. Even the part that says: repeatedly changing lanes in close proximity to other vehicles so as to advance through the ordinary flow of traffic while driving at a rate of speed that is a marked departure from the...

    It's FILTERING, NOT lane splitting!

    Seems google is not my friend. All I can find is the mythbusters thing and the LA times both of which are testing non catalytic converter bikes and if so , the conclusion is correct. About gas mileage. The question is which can do the best Mpg with appropriate driving and IMHO an R1 can do much...

    It's FILTERING, NOT lane splitting!

    Well I am Driving a Citroen C2 1600cc and a Yamaha TDM 900cc in Greece and the consumption of the TDM900 is exactly half. Where do you get your data? Not form the datasheets I hope, because the datasheets say that yes, the Citroen and the TDM have equal mileage. The gas pump though says...

    It's FILTERING, NOT lane splitting!

    Hello Everyone! I am currently moving to toronto from Greece. I was fantasizing that I would get I motorcycle in Toronto but after going through this thread I am disappointed.
