Sounds (and the photo looks) like an adopted guy from Russia. Photo looks Russian too, with perhaps some fetal alcohol syndrome. I'm glad he didn't kill anyone, and hope he can stay safe in the future.
Reminds me of the youtube video of some guy that filmed his commutes on his bike through Moscow. Insane speeds in VERY heavy traffic. Rumor is that he was killed in a wreck. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XihQeZpwqpE Hold on to your hat (and lunch) watching the video.
Insane!!!!
I suspect for relax time he plays Russian Roulette.:)
He is definitely very good since going at such speeds in tight traffic where all sorts of permutations and probabilities can occur, such as a car veering or a side mirror that is jutting out a tad bit, requires a very high degree of skill. Otherwise he would have crashed the first time he tried to make that video. Most motorcyclists wouldn't be able to even make one video like that even if they wanted to. He is a great rider. However, he is also foolish since there are so many other factors operating beyond his control. All it needs is for a car to veer onto him, or some rubble on the road, or any number of events that can happen and in the process convert that cyclist into a human cannonball. Every single car he passes at that speed is an exercise in cumulative arithmetic progression (maybe even geometric progression), and his control over many of those factors is very limited no matter how good he is.
There was also another rider (dressed all in black, European but not Russian) who used to do similar stuff. This chap however would race on highways, and he used to bait cops. I believe his videos were titled 'ghost rider' or something like that. I also wonder what happened to that guy.

Good diagnosis. Shape of head and chin is classic FAS.
Dude takes lane splitting to a whole new level.
Incredibly reckless.
