    Public safety, everything is permissible unless expressly prohibited.

    In the USA the only state that does not expressly prohibit lane splitting is California and they can ticket if it is not done prudently and safely.

    The rest of the states all have laws forbidding it…

    Why are the larger motorcycles more popular in the USA, why are the smaller light and maneuverable bikes so popular in the nations that allow lane splitting?

    This guy just got his new XRE300, if you reside in the USA you will likely feel uncomfortable watching his first ride home, the rest of the world of lane splitters will likely not even take notice.
