What i like is when they stare at the bike afterwards as if it's all the bikes fault LOL.
Bikes bite but when they are being ridden in such stupid avoidable ways ,well they bite big time and give bikers a bad name.

its more dangerous a stupid person with a multiple tons 4x4, a truck or a car than a stupid person with a bike. plus it is healthier cheaper and dont pollute. so long live the bikes

Bikes are like horses, if you don't have a fall occasionally your not pushing the envelope enough. I broke an arm early this year and am back riding again already.

Safety is a consideration but the mid-life crisis "potter about sedately and safely on a Harley" phenomena is the antithesis of what British/Continental biking was all about.

I appreciate that there are genuine accidents but some of the sheer stupidity is amazing,how they can afford to repair the bikes i don't know.
I can imagine the lies on the insurance form (if they have insurance) i
" i was riding carefully at 29 mph when a little kitten stumbled in front of me "

It certainly shows why the Triumph Bonneville was so popular in the US back in the Seventies The Harley's shown are like the ball in a pinball machine - only changing direction when they hit something!
