I'm assuming that the above movie shows hitting wario beneath the chair. I tried this but I erroneously discarded it because I didn't get hurt, which is required for the next part of the battle. MUGG's post got me thinking that I could just walk straight into Wario if I wanted to.
Unfortunately, I found that completing the secret exit in macro zone does not count as a level completion, and you need to have a level completion in order to exit a level prematurely, which is required for the pipe glitch. This meant that the route logically came back to MUGG’s original plan.
For some reason, Soulrivers thought that the glitch that made bosses disappear off screen quicker was exclusive to the J version
Nice run! After the first few levels, the play gets interesting. I also like the music. The game started to get a little repetitive near the end, though, so I don't know whether a 100% run would be a good idea. In any case, it seems like an any% run belongs on the site. Out of curiosity, you mention a potential improvement by alternating diagonal and horizontal movement. If this actually worked, how much time do you expect it would save? (i.e. is this enough time to merit a delayed submission?)

: ------------------- :\
: [b] A bad dump often occurs with an older :\
: game or a faulty dumper (bad connection). :\

: ------------------- :\
: [h] Something in this ROM is not quite as it :\

: some kind of cheating or funny hack. :\
: ------------------- :\
: [o] An overdumped ROM image has more data :\

Motocross Maniacs (U) [!].gb
The original version of the game.
Konami GB Collection Vol.3 (E) [C][!].gbc (The game is renamed to "Bikers")
Same as the original version, but with colors. Unfortunately it runs at half the speed compared to other versions, so I think this shouldn't be used.
Konami Collection 2 (J) [S].gb
Same as the original version and with SGB border. The colors are slightly brighter.
