A 25-mile commute through Russian traffic and a powerful two-wheeled samurai sword, and you get a video showing the "quick" way to work. Sometimes this two-wheeler even becomes a one-wheeler as rare empty stretches of road disappear when the nose goes skyward.

That guy’s luck will run out soon.
Russians are nuts. They’re like Caucasian Japanese.
Obviously the guy has a death wish and it will soon be granted if he keeps driving like that. An absolute IDIOT!
Probably best he be removed from the gene pool anyway.
Reminds me of my Boston Commute on the SE Expressway.
(On a Harley...no wheelies for this little old lady!)
This is why we have “Darwin Awards”.
The guy is probably already a grill ornament.
Yep. I saw two motorcyclists weaving traffic about a month ago. They were darting in and out and creating their own mini lanes between cars. What was interesting was that they were totally oblivious to each other and came within about half a second of weaving into each other at ~70 mph.
People who do this are betting their lives on the traffic being 100% predictable. No one opening their door to spit or empty a cup, no one suddenly lurching a their car to nose into the next lane, and no other motorcyclist or bicyclist ignoring traffic laws in a similar manner.

Wild man. Such riding belongs on a race track.
It's called "lane splitting" or "filtering", depending on where it is. It's legal in California but nowhere else (I think) in the US.
I'm a fair weather rider and would do it at stop lights, maybe, but not in moving traffic.
Things can happen...even on an idyllic country road. The ONLY time I ever rode like that was Route 15 in Gettysburg...I was going to be late for the 135th Anniversary Re-enactment!
Yep, and the poor slob that happens to flatten him has to live with it the rest of their lives.
Just like the idiots doing wheelies in traffic at 75 miles per hour.
Another wild ride through a bucolic landscape!
Note the old Soviet-era apartment houses in the background—built far enough apart so that should they be knocked down in a nuclear attack, there will still be enough space between them to pass through.
I never knew that little space between the two solid lines on the highway is the high-speed gonzo motorcycle commuting lane.
What an arrogant a@@hole. Hasn’t he ever watched any Russian dashcam videos?
Ive see som real stupit on bikes.... my all time worst was seein a guy on a crotch rocket doing 100 plus on the 605 freeway in Southern Cal... wearing nothing but a pair of swim trunks and some flip flops
