I'm 48 years old. I've had my motorcycle endorsement since I was 22. I've laid a bike down 1 time in all those years on the street. I ride safe, I stay safe, I assume all other vehicles do not see me.
I'm 59 with the same story as you. I was 16 when I dropped my bike. I could see my shin bone that had to be packed every day. Pain pain pain. Lessons in life aren't free. I too assume all other vehicles can't see. Stay safe brother.
Yes same here…45…had license since 25…dropped my bike cuz I was riding with someone very experienced and I tried to follow them.…bad idea…luckily I wasn’t hurt…full gear on…haven’t been down since…that was 17 years ago…I drive very safe and pay attention to everything…!!!! Be safe and have fun boys and girls…👍👍👍
Never hit the bitumen, but I have got close and personal with the dirt on quite a few occasion's on my chook chaser! Invisibility is a riders curse as long as there are morons on the roads.
I'm 67, had my first ride (Honda CB 350 Scrambler) in FL when I was 17. I've had two accidents, one was caused by gravel I didn't see on a back road curve, also at 17, the next was on a 400 Kawasaki in NYC, when at 22, I got crushed by a drunk in a car who hit me and a parked car doing about 45 at night. Was NO place to hide. Now riding a Buell Blast, fun for around town and on the local twisties.
Props to you. This makes me feel better about the hazards of riding
I've been told that I'm going to die because I ride a motorcycle. I reminded them, everyone dies, yet not everyone really lives. I want to live before I die. That's why I ride.
I'm always told im going to die too but because they knew someone who crashed or heard from someone who knew someone.
Spot on brother. Normal people just don't get it!!
ABSOLUTELY! You "get it"!
Precisely. We all do know it's a fact that bikes are inherently more dangerous, than say, driving a SUV. I think part of the thrill of riding is knowing that, and still loving every minute you're on it. The freedom, the thrill, the danger - letting the 'rebel' in us come out is a great feeling.
Damn so deep
Bikes are incredibly dangerous... please send your bikes to me for safekeeping. If you insist on riding the deathtrap, don't drink, don't drive like an ass, and you have just improved your odds astronomically!
Drinking is also dangerous, please send me all your booze so I can make sure it is disposed of responsibly. No I don't have a drinking problem what do you mean?
Bro...that's a great business plan: "Send me your motorcycle and pay me to ride it for you. Safety first"
Motorcycles are dangerous and more so in the wrong hands! I’ve been riding 55 years and have had only two crashes, both my fault, but I was young and inexperienced! Love your videos Sean!
I admit, adrenaline junkie here, but my adrenaline hits at 55 mph 🤣 I'm a slow poke and enjoy it 💁♀️
I’m getting a cbr 600 but I don’t think I’ll ever go 55 mph
@@PegahSye I think that's the lowest mph for those right jk 🤣
Same as me. Used to own an r6 but never really passed 80 so i got ma self yamaha xt660x more confy allroad less speed but more fun
Oussama Cin welll for me it’s between a CBR600 or a newer 2018 ninja 650. Comfy and sport looks. And 55 sounds like 90
@gemini232003 I'm only on a ninja 300 and I have a 250 so I can get to 6th at 55 lol. Planning on moving up soon to a ninja 636 but I enjoy the light weight
In the wrong hands and environment... yes. Kind of like a gun, a car, a kitchen knife..
Big fax
Excellent video. You absolutely nailed it right here - 3:28 Attitude is 90% of the ability to stay alive as a motorcyclist, and a little common courtesy to other users of the road doesn't hurt either. Ride like everybody's out to kill you as some of them actually are. I put MOST of the blame for much of the public's dislike of motorcyclists directly on the shoulders of motorcyclists who drive like maniacs in traffic!
I purchased my first motorcycle from a Doctor who gave me some excellent tips that have served me well through over 35 years of riding without any serious incident. I've ridden everything from 350cc Standards to larger standard/sporty, to a couple cruisers, to an 1800cc Goldwing (mostly two up with my wife), to a retro classic CB1100EX, and most recently back to a vintage 750cc Nighthawk. I'm now 71 years old and just recently sold our Goldwing to a Surgeon. 'Twas a great bike which my wife absolutely loved BUT muscling over a 1,000 pounds around was beginning to sap some of my confidence so I decided to let it go. My CB1100 is a dream bike (for me) and the 750 Nighthawk which I purchased this summer is a blast from the past. I can't believe my luck in finding this pristine 28 year old machine.
Old guy told me when I was 18 and thought I was invincible you are gonna go down at least once in your life if you ride and the bike has is only as safe as you ride if you ride stupid you cannot complain when something bad happens so always respect the bike
I’m so glad it doesn’t take much to get my adrenaline going, I feel like a mad man only going like 60mph on back roads😂
And remember, There are bold bikers and there are old bikers... but there are no old, bold bikers.☠️😎
But there are plenty of old, bald bikers
easyrider4x I’m getting there... I’m bold n getting old. 9 yrs seemed like it’s been 9 days, n everyday I forgot what happened yesterday lol.
Ah yes. The short term memory. I am old enough to not be bold except for one run to the “ton” each year. 49 years of riding has been good to me and I pray now for a few more. My signature picture kinda says where my head is at these days.
easyrider4x everyday I count how many work days I have left for the week to end. Note after the work-week-ends I stop riding... so it’s quiet the opposite lol. But when the week starts, on the very first day I look at the average temps which I would have known the past week. Just to reassure myself what I have to deal with lol. I call this “The Ring”. If the week is going to b cold like right now, I would already b aware of it prior to the last one that ends. Every Sunday is the time I do prepared mechanical procedures. Like change my oil before time just because the weather is going to b colder. N while it’s in my first work day, I dress for the weather with electric thermal gears. The only thing I pay attention to every morning is how the bikes starts. Because I can’t b fixing them during the week, it’s always on a Sunday, even if it’s a small battery problem. If it can’t run, I benched it n take another. Mind u I always have two. I’ve been doing this for so long that my days r irrelevant. My time doesn’t matter. All that matter is each morning they start.
easyrider4x n while I’m riding u would think I’m enjoying I’m not. On certain curves n lane splitting there r these cars that always likes to bypass riders... sometimes in my head it’s always one person because there are certain days they don’t do it, I pay close attention to who’s behind me n how fast I’m going. Like yesterday this guy literally put a right signal like he’s turning right while he’s accelerating on my ass n I was doing 75 MPH. He really wanted to kill me, all it takes for me to avoid this is being calm as I’m normally am and at the very last minutes when he almost hit me I tilt right and press my brake slightly. It was only me n him at that speed n everyone else was doing 65 the highest.
Truth hurts! Brilliant video, I loved it and my wife did not. Brilliant!
P.S. "Dress for the slide, not for the ride." ATG ATT
CORRECT Sir! ALL of the gear; ALL of the time...
@gemini232003 Who "plans to crash"??? It's called an "accident", not an "on-purpose"... Harley guy, huh? Too proud to wear rider gear? I used to be "that guy", but I have a family that loves & needs me. So there's that.
@gemini232003 planning for the worst doesn’t mean you’re planning to crash and or die. If you wear your seatbelt then you’re just a hypocrite, and if you don’t, it’s your choice if you want to die but don’t shame people for valuing their lives
@gemini232003 You live your life how you want but don’t shame people for caring about their safety. It’s really as simple as that
@gemini232003 most people would argue that it’s stupid not to wear a seatbelt or gear, but you do you
I've been riding motorcycles for 50 years. Have not had one major wreck yet. I ride as if I'm a ghost. That is how I stay alive and stay safe.
The most dangerous form of transportation, as far as injuries and deaths per man-mile, is undoubtedly walking, followed closely by running. Bicycles come right in there, too.
IKR
I ride like everybody is out to get me. pay attention to side streets, love my vulcan
doty2u Agree with what you said. Love my Valkyrie.
Yes motorcycles are dangerous but the defining factor is the rider. You can be a safe rider on the most "dangerous" bike or you can be a manic on a mini-bike. Either way it all boils down to how you ride.
Wrap blankets around yourself and call your mom.
@gemini232003 umm. just..Why not?
@gemini232003 ya but the slight increase in comfort that you get without a seatbelt cannot justify the immense danger this puts on you. If you're not gonna be safe for yourself, at least be safe for your family and friends. These people will continue to feel the emotional pain while your long gone.
@gemini232003 mate. You're delusional. Seatbelts have never caused death. Even if you are the safest driver/rider in the world, a drunk 18 year old adrenaline junkie can end your life while you might be stopped on a red light. smoking back than was considered safe just before people started dying from it. Its the same with the seatbelt, statistics shows from accidents that seatbelts are literal lifesavers. Its you're choice i guess. If you wanna fly outta your car then go ahead, but just think of the pain your family will go through next you decide not to wear one.
@gemini232003 Instant Death can happen under a second of the inital crash, if you dont beleive me, here's a little maths, if car crashes at 100kmph, that's 27 meters per second, a steering wheel is 1 meter away(being generous), YOU HAVE 0.27 SECONDS TO GET OUT THE WAY! No human is capable of moving out the way that fast... I think for myself through simple physics. Its Newtons first law of physics, when the cars haults from the crash, YOU will be flung out at a 100kmph or whatever speed you were travelling at. A seatbelt prevents that... You say, people dont think for themselves, trust me people do think. You on the other hand should think less for yourself, you're mind has become delutional from all the concussions you've got from not wearing a seatbelt.
@gemini232003 i would prefer to listen to scientists who have spent years experimenting on the most safest way to stay alive rather than leaving it to my reflexes. Flying out the windscreen is 100% certainty of death, being stuck in a flaming car still gives you a chance to survive. Im not saying seatbelts are 100% garunteed to keep you alive, but they far outweigh the dangers without them.
Its all about the Rider just like a gun kills no one without a person pulling the trigger!
Motorcycles & Guns!!! Woooooooooo!!!
Yeep
I'm gonna get a 2008 cbr1000rr as my first bike, and as soon as I get it, I'm gonna try 3rd gear wheelies on the highway. I've always wanted to do that. Why wait??? Is that dangerous?
Joe S. Make sure to wear tennis shoes, Jean shorts and a tank top. You’ll have a good time!
and it didnt happen unless you motovlog it
A motorcycle doesn't brake quicker than anything out there. A car in general , actually brakes quicker (distance wise spoken)
Super bikes don’t stop faster than anything on the road. Look up stopping distance for vehicles and compare that to bikes. 20-30 years ago it wasn’t. Today’s modern pick up trucks are some of the fastest stopping vehicles besides the super cars....
One thing I like about my WR250R dual sport is that even though it can handle a bit of everything, you also FEEL everything! Plus it’s light and maneuverable which makes it super fun at slower speeds.
But one thing that scares me about larger displacement bikes is that you can get very comfortable going very fast. With the windscreen, heavier weight, lower center of gravity, and body positioning, you can very quickly forget just how much danger you’re truly in.
On my small displacement dual sport, I will feel lateral shifts in the wind and general wind drag much more prominently. I really have to really rev it up to take off quickly too, which reminds me how fast even just 40mph is.
It might be more fatiguing at faster speeds, but it also keeps me way more in tune to what’s going on.
46 yrs old. Got my endorsement at 21. Owned 7 bikes from Supersport to naked to sport touring to standard UJM. Never been down. Had some close calls. If you look into the data you quickly realize that if you do two simple things you greatly improve your odds of survival- 1. Don't drink. 2. Wear your gear. If you also add a dash of self control you won't statistically be that much worse off than someone in a car. Having said all that, I prefer to drive convertible sports cars over riding these days. Safer to get that wind in the hair feeling in a car and I enjoy driving as much if not more than riding.
Your final comments couldn't be more factual. Live while you can! 🤙✌️
any vehicle is dangerous in the wrong hands
Having been knocked off a motorcycle twice in my life, I can vouch that they are all dangerous. As much fun as they are, I can't face riding one on public roads again.
Stick to track days where there are no junctions or anyone going the other way
Yhea haven't ridden on roads since I was in hospital next to a lad who'd crashed in to a house, swerving from a idiot and killed his mrs's who was on the back. Never forget his voice when he was told what had happened.
Oh, and the reason Harleys are more dangerous than others, IMHO, is because a large number of them are written by people without helmets. And even the ones who were wearing helmets, a lot of the times, are going to bike nights at bars. The quickest way to get killed on a motorcycle, is to add alcohol. Just my two cents.
Another thing to note on speed... drivers of cars judge where you’re going to be and when based on the flow of traffic.
For example, if cars are moving from point A to point B in about 10 seconds, that’s more than enough time to pull out and speed up. But if you’re an outlier and you moved from point A to point B in 3-4 seconds because you were speeding, then if they pull out in front of you, that’s 100% your fault.
Flow with the speed of traffic so that you remain predictable!
My cafe racer gets on the road all the time, Sean. You're lucky I'm a fan, otherwise I might take offense to that hipster cafe racer comment. Full disclosure, neither of my bikes are full on cafe, but they have a cafe-ish vibe. (I have 2017 Moto Guzzi V7iii Special and a slightly modified 1974 Honda CB750.) I like the vintage bikes and retro/modern classics for the most part. I tend to get along with anyone who rides a bike, no matter what style it is. I've never actually been on a sports bike. I'm sure they're fun to ride, but not really my style.
@PaPa-D I guess you're right. I feel better now. : ) I do like the cafe racers though, just can't do the full on clubman or clip on bars seating position.
cars are the "monsters", not motorcycles and you can't control the cars while on a motorercycle
I love it. The guy who says “Have everything working at optimal performance” likes to take old bikes that fall apart on long trips!! (Just giving you a hard time!). I have an 83 and have to keep things up to date. It’s a good bit of work but worth it. You not only keep your bike on good working order but you also know how it works and how it goes together.
33 years of riding! I did slide into a ditch as a new rider. That was my only accident. I've had close calls but I was watching and ready so I didn't have an accident.
Great video and great points, I'm enjoying my bike life for the last 2 years. I will always recommend buying a bike and living your life the way you want to. Ride safe.
The problem with motorcycles is that if you crash even at low speeds, you die or are seriously injuried/disabled. If you never crash though, you are good.
That’s not true I ve crashes tons of bikes and never disabled or seriously injured
They're not dangerous. Riding them is hazardous. How you ride it and how you deal with the hazards is what makes it dangerous or not.
Motorcycles do not suffer fools with no common sense. Respect the ride. Respect the machine. You may just live to ride again.
I'm fine with the danger of riding by bike but when you see a guy younger than yourself get killed by a car that failed to yield just a couple miles from your house, it makes you a little discouraged to go out and ride again. I just wish people would pay attention. But I gotta admit, I was driving down a 4 lane busy street the other day in my car and I didn't even see or hear this quiet sport bike cruising in my blind spot but that's why I always check around me before turning or changing lanes and always give riders some room because that's what I want when I'm on my bike.
The other thing with Harleys is that since they have such a large market share, they are going to tend to attract a higher amount of newer and casual riders.
Living is dangerous so might as well do it on two wheels
IMO, HD cruisers are disproportionately involved in accidents because the dudes who buy them don't know how to ride well, and just want the big Harley for their looks...but as soon as the road has a curve in it, they go down
There are 2 types of motorcycle riders, ones that have crashed, and ones that are going to crash.
Well said Sean. I started riding 2 years ago when I turned 30 and I love it. I remember telling my fat ass co-worker that I finally bought a bike and he should buy one also. That way maybe he'd finally get a girlfriend. But he was like naah, that's waaay too dangeorus! Fat bastard is like 100 pounds overweight and will likely get a heart attack in a couple of years but he wouldn't risk riding a bike lol Ridiculous! Or a different guy who burns through 2 pacs of smokes a day and thinks he's safer than me because he drives a car instead of a motorcycle
Like a hammer, it depends on who is using it, how they are using it, and what they are doing with it.
I have never seen anyone be attacked by a bike or anything other then people or animals. Bikes are inanimate and incapable of anything but sitting there.......until someone gets on it.
Opinion: MC's aren't "dangerous", stupid people ARE! its ALL about the rider.
Yeah, stupid people are dangerous, but some drunk cager T-boning you doesn't change the fact you're now dead or living a life as a paraplegic. Motorcycles are dangerous and anyone that rides that doesn't understand that ought to stop riding.
@@ronfriedman8740 Shyt, even when driving a car I slow down at intersections, to get a look-see b4 proceeding through. Again, only stupid people; including those on/in 4-wheeled vehicles. I've been rear ended on my 99 Road King, and run off the road, on my 07 Night Train. It's all about keeping a level head and doing your best to maintain control...
A majority of bike deaths in my state in Australia are rider fault, speed being the major cause, the other are drivers on mobile phones or just not looking out.
Great Video, really enjoyed watching. I agree death comes to us all but life is about living it with as much fun as we can as long as we hurt no others. I am a volunteer bike instructor in the UK and love to pass on my experience to new riders in the hope that they stay safe and get the same love of life and riding as i do.
About the super sport, they do not brake faster than a car. Dont fool your selfs, go to your ride knowing you have a longer braking distance
I have my permit. But I still need to take the msf endorsement. Im afraid! But Im practicing everyday.
Keep practicing and have fun doing it. When I took my msf, there was a kid that had NEVER been on a bike EVER. He passed. There was a chick in my class too and she was one of the best, also with very little experience.
When you take the class stay loose and pay attention.
Good luck!
@@EverythingN.Nothing Thank you for the words of encouragement and awesome advice!! :)
Protip: use the provided bikes. If you have a sport bike or big bike (ADV, tourer, etc) it will suck at MSF maneuvers. Use their tiny light bikes for a much easier time. Groms and TW200’s are the best if they have them.
the Honda Accord weighs 4000 pounds? 😆
With two people and a sandwich I guess...
3200-3400lb curb weight. 2020 Accord. Fact
Motorcycles are not dangerous riders are dangerous same with cage drivers. Your safety depends on you no matter what you're driving.
100% agree. It's all about attitude.
Yes accidents on a MC can quickly be much worst but a rider with skill, knowledge and awareness of surroundings makes accidents far less likely.
I know it's a bit late for this but motorcycles do not brake faster than cars, not even close and i've seen it first hand IRL. Just because they're lighter doesn't mean they have a shorter brake distance.
life is more dangerous than a motorcycle. we are fully geared up and protected from everything. ride on!!
Depending on who is controlling the bike.. thrill seekers are a danger to everyone on the highways...
I love motorcycles and don't think I'll ever stop, but living in SoCal (Los Angeles) it's just sad because everyday they announce a motorcycle crash in the morning. EVERYDAY. :(
Over here in the uk alot of us bikers have had dirt bikes till your old enough to ride road bikes. You learn sliding around in dirt and gravel which gives you great road bike skills in wet or bad icy weather. Ride safe enjoy the ultimate machines at all speeds to your ability and to the road conditions, have fun and keep it shine side up !
Great video Sean. Spot on too. Loved the comment" speed limit gets fuzzy!!" How true! Like you say, ride in your ability, and it's rather safe, and a lot of fun!
Bikes Dagerous.. more like " less forgivìng" of mistakes made by you or others. Especially in the wet, gravel etc. I have made mistakes in the wet in cars and bikes and the outcomes were not the same.
Car drivers are a bigger danger to me on my bike that I am.
Incidentally I rode from UK down to Bosnia and back, avoiding motorways (freeways) at all times. Lots of unpaved roads to. 4,000 miles in three weeks. And my bike? A KTM RC8, one of the best all round bikes I've ever owned. So I purchased an RC8R to keep it company.
I've probably ridden around a million miles over the last 44 years on so many types of bikes from 50cc scooters to 1200cc sportsbikes and loved them all.
Getting married is dangerous but people still do it.
I just got my mc license last year bought a Vulcan 500 for 1000 bucks enjoyed it for like 3 months barely rode it never really ran right sold it but I'm def looking to get back into one I really think when I'm ready to pull the trigger I'm goin to take the trip to you guys I live in MD love honesty and you guys are awsome
hate to admit how old I am, been riding over 50 years, dirt bikes before I had a license, crotch rockets going fast, cruised on BMWs, Bonnies and a few HDs now I putt around on a HD,SGS, in all those years I went down twice (on the road) when cars ran into me , one classic left turn "I didn't see you!" fool , the other a guy driving out of an alley onto the roadway without bothering to look...if I had ABS back then it would be one instead of two as I could have slowed and turned instead of laying it down on the left turn guy...no defense for the out of nowhere guy...I feel extremely lucky and albeit I hurt everyday, I still feel best when up on two...re: dangerous; I have wondered about the kid that passes me like I'm stopped when I have the cruise set at 80 ... I remember doing that, glad I am here to remember ...
Intersections is a motorcycle Achilles, but cars and trucks also, just ride defensively look out for people running stop signs
Whenever I head out on a solo ride, my wife says to me "be careful" . I always tell her "I want to wake up next to you tomorrow". Then, "ah, whatever" (just kidding, still rocking at 28 years). I'm a cruiser guy that was going to skip the IMS this years, but thinking about moving to the southwest and an adventure bike may be my next dangerous move.
Anything that can move is potentially dangerous.
Life in general is dangerous so it doesn't matter whether it's a car or a motorcycle life is dangerous
BAN MOTORCYCLES!!.....................IMPEACH Sean!!! Send M1-MOTO GLOVES!!!!!
Fake News !!!
That was pretty rude saying any clown can afford a 5 thousand dollar bike. You really hurt a lot of less fortunate people saying that
Motorcycles definitively do not stop quicker than cars.
8:53 ... the absolute safest bike ... bwah-hah-hah!
Would you voluntarily jump out of a car at 70 mph with no helmet nor full gear w armor ? I didn't think so. Don't be a mornon. ATGATT head to toe , armor , level 2 armor . Obey the speed limit. You are invisible
I now ride a 650 KLR that I've dropped a couple times in the dirt. Muddy ruts are my enemy on such a heavy Enduro. BUTTTTT I now have a dead man's donor knee from a first gear crash. While leaving my driveway the neighbors dog took off after me. I tried to kick him outa the way with my left foot extended and knee was locked. When my foot hit the pavement the entire knee exploded and drove this leg 2.5 inches shorter. After a couple of months in hospital and physical rehab and about 6 month on a walker and wheelchair I'm back riding again.
I can't put into words how the first time back on it felt. It wasn't a scared feeling , but it was a neck tingly feeling nine the less.
We had a man who was picnicking with his family in our state park a few years ago. It was a nice day, no serious wind or anyting, and all of a sudden a tree branch fell and killed him. The park people estimated that it had taken about 75 years for the termites to chew through that branch. 75 years of time where it could have fallen and not hurt anyone... and then, all of a sudden, out of nowhere it drops and kills the man. Life isn't safe, and no one gets out alive. You might as well enjoy the ride.
I'm 40 years old now and been riding since I'm 22, I used to ride alot of sport and sport-touring bikes but decided to trade in my last sport bike (ZX6R) for a Shadow 750 and not sorry I did! :)
Great video Sean especially the parts at the end live your life
Love the vid everyone is dangerous on them but I went down on my electra. Ouch..
Dude on a Harley ran into the back of me. Like to have killed me but God 🙏👍👊 I swear they like to show their power off when sport bikes are around. "We too" movement lol
future SRK vid; can you actually accelerate as fast as you can brake (decelerate) on a super sport.
One of my buddies got hit by a deer while we were on dirt bikes he still alive and still a funny prick
Unfortunately cagers will never understand the passion and freedom we have on a motorcycle. All of us will eventually die one day when it is your time. I have been riding for 22 years and have had three accidents where all of them was from vehicles on the road. Always be vigilant when riding as vehicles never see you coming. My father always gave me this advice, the bike will always be your boss and you are not the boss of the bike. Respect the bike.
Motorcycles are not dangerous, speed is dangerous. Motorcycles are simply less safe than modern cars
Somebody was telling me how We don't need a seatbelt and if anything went wrong, you're dead.
I said, "But the bike gave me LIFE."
Actually, the best supersports brake in longer distances than a typical nervous nelly crossover SUV.
Thank God for this guy's Channel LOL right on man
I agree sir I enjoy watching you sir
Clearly the most dangerous is a bike that does not function properly.
You know what's more dangerous than motorcycles? Walking and running! I've never been seriously injured on a motorbike, but myself and others have gained lifelong injuries simply from walking accidents! My sister even saw a woman get decapitated by a truck crossing the road at a zebra crossing! Ban walking! It's too dangerous!
In 42 years of riding motorcycles almost everyday, I have fallen off & hurt myself badly enough to need time off work 3 times.
In 21 years of living in a house with stairs, I have fallen down them & hurt myself badly enough to need time off work 5 times.
Therefore, I conclude stairs are more dangerous than motorcycles...
Awesome video👍🏾
I don't think so any sport bike in particular would be at all the most dangerous they're handling characteristics braking acceleration and maneuverability is unquestionable the most dangerous bike to me it would be your gold wings your road glides bikes that are equipped with radios GPS coms cup holders etc that offer a lot of complacency while riding there is no complacency on a sportbike
You forgot the street naked upright bikes
The only danger bikes are to me is that they drain my $$$. Bling ain't cheap.
I bet that shop smells so good! LOL always love the way bike shops smell! haha
I would have to somewhat disagree. Bikes are only as dangerous as the person riding it wants it to be. I ride my bike defensively, and safely. Never have I had a crash or an accident, and I average 10k a year on my bike.
Loud Pipes don't save lives. Explain how a cager pulls out in front of you on a 5 lane highway when you're running headers?
This hurts... my Cafe Racer has been off the road for 4 months, Also about to buy a second bike because I know my bike will be a little while longer until its ready.
No motorcycles are not dangerous, neither is a gun dangerous!!! It's the human that makes them dangerous.
A motorcycle, car, gun, are not dangerous by themselves it always takes a person to turn them dangerous.
Motorcycles DO NOT brake faster than cars!! Please don’t confuse people
I'm laid up in A hospital in Germany. Currently proving more dangerous than the U.S. Army. This is my second crash with an SUV/truck ( and both times I have been at zero fault). Splint second decisions can be death or life. Injury is often unavoidable. You just pick the most probably best outcome. I could have either t-boned or try and dodge. In dodging, I got clipped. Went flying 25 feet. Then was flown to a trauma unit. Now I got metal implants in arms and legs. Will I still ride? Yes! I have ridden them since i was a kid. But study statistics in order Not to become one ( for your state too!). And try not to use them as your only or primarily mode of transport
I been riding for 45 years everyday is an Adventure ( ride it like u stole it )
