I haven't been on a bike for like 6 years now. 3 of the guys I used to hang out with died from an accident, 1 got into a comatose (I heard he died already; not sure), and some kid from my old school got into an accident and he lost 1 of his legs, his right arm, and 1 eye - not to mention his face got deformed. Trying to stick to cars and pubic transportation for now. =)
That's why I don't like bikes... as the saying goes, if you buy your son a motorbike, buy him a coffin as well.
I heard of that saying and hummm... can't say its not true. I dont always drive around like that, mostly i drive at the speed limit. But shit can happen and don't joke around with bike's, ya it can end bad. But if you always stay focused and see the shit before it happens than bike's are really safe believe me. I personaly feel safer on my bike than in a car

I had some close calls becouse some car drivers dont look in mirrors etc but i saw it before it happend. During my driving lessons i learnd to read the minds of car drivers, and I learnd to look wayyyyy ahead and process evrything you see. + I have more than 100k KM of driving experience. ^^
ps. biggest problem is people with 750cc 1000cc super bikes that can go 270km/h+++++ and 0>100 in 2 second xD ... thats just insane dangerous

I will never buy a super bike couze it will not end good for me...
