You would think the young guys on the insanely powerful crotch rockets would be the ones having more accidents.
I wonder what the deal is?

crotch rockets are more maneuverable, lighter, have better suspension, and are more aerodynamic.. etc. besides, alot of younger guys, as you said, learned on smaller dirtbikes, and worked their way up, rather than jumping right on the big bikes, at middle age.
personally, i'll take my standard VJMCs over either.

Older guys shatter...

A couple of years back I was cruising down the freeway at slightly higher than the posted speed. I was passed by a guy going close to double my speed. He was wearing a leather pant/jacket combo that would have made Elvis jealous. He was riding a Ninja style bike. A few moments later I was passed by the California Highway Patrol and they were clearly after Te biker. A few miles down the road they had him pulled over and I was shocked that under his helmet was gray hair and I got a look at his face. The guy was at least 50!
It looked like his vehicle of choice for navigating male menopause was a motorcycle.
