Dang, I'm thinking of roadracing crashes! You are talking about every day riding.
Harley's have a nasty habit of being too bulky to get away from when you bail.
Yep.

Not so much that, I never had any trouble getting off when it was the right thing to do... even ended up standing on the bike once.
It is back to two out of three multivehicle accidents being caused by an inattentive cager, the left leg is the one that gets it most often, by a slim margin, just imagine getting cut off by a left-turning cage...
Oddly, the extremities take most of the abuse, actual orthopedic head injuries are pretty far down the list. Even with a helmet, subdural hematomae can be a problem, (sometimes, a skull fracture is better, it lets the pressure off), because of the way the brain sloshes around due to the sudden stop.
