You don't see "Harley Davidson" owners pulling the stunts most of these sport motorcycle owners pull. Hell do you ever hear about someone in a Harley Davidson getting hit and killed? Hardly ever, street sport bike's all the time. My uncle was hit on a sports bike. My ex-girlfriends brother's bestfriend died because he got hit by a drunk driver.
If you own and drive a bike you are aware of whats around you. It would be like me driving my car and I'm surrounded by semi's. Hell one hits me or side swipes me I'm dead.
This is an absolutely false statement. Cruiser bikes are just as suseptable to idiot drives as sport bikes. I've seen hundreds of accident sites from cruiser bikes, as well as sport bikes. The majority of sport bike accidents you're thinking of and trying to group into the mix are from accidents where they were either trying to pull a stunt like a moron and failing, or speeding double or tripple the limit and getting fucked for it by another car.
GENERALLY the accidents on motorcycles are not from stupid stunts and obsurd speeding, but from every day driving, and idiot drivers not looking where they're going, on both bikes, and in cars.
