I wonder if keeping your speed within a factor of two of the posted speed limit would help the survival rates of motorcyclists?

I bought this exact model in March. I'll be 70 in August if it doesn't kill me first.

There is a lot of stupid on the roads today and when I ride I am the ultimate defensive rider. I pass every last vehicle I come across and never stay next to any vehicle more than 3 seconds. If you ride on the street, you are INVISIBLE and as soon as you think you are safe, some idiot changes lanes into you...

I worked for years in a big city ER. We’d get patients flown in from points within a 200 mile radius,including those involved in bike accidents. I can guarantee you that in hospital ERs motorbikes are,in fact,referred to as “donor cycles”.

I almost got me a bicyclist yesterday! Coming down a road to a T. I stopped, looked for cars and almost pulled out in front of a bycyclist. I managed to stop.
I learned almost forty years that if you are on a two wheel conveyance you suddenly become invisible to all auto drivers.
Got rid of my two wheelers and went to trucks.

With more drivers on their cell phones and high on dope.....no way I’m getting back on a scooter.

Suggestion: put steel all around bike. Add two wheels to support structural weight. Or identify as a marshmallow.
For pedestrians: full football/hockey gear.
Couch potatoes: eat only rabbit food.

Sounds good to me.
You only have to look ahead.
Not in the rear view mirror, and all around.

I almost got me a bicyclist yesterday! Coming down a road to a T. I stopped, looked for cars and almost pulled out in front of a bycyclist. I managed to stop.Got me one a few years ago. I had a green light through an intersection, and there were three cars coming at me. It was 0-Dark-30 and all I could see was headlights. As the lights from the last car cleared my vision, I sensed more than saw that there was a motion behind the last car. Jammed on the brakes. Idiot crossed the road behind those cars and didn't even see me. I had no chance to see him. No reflective gear or lights. It was so close, that if I'd have had another 6" of stopping space, he'd only have had dirty underwear and a story to tell. As it was, he got a (possibly) broken leg and broken bicycle out of it. Thankfully, I had three witnesses let the cops know that he rode out in front of me and I had the green. Never heard from anyone on it. I notified my insurance, but no claim was ever made.
