Jesus lotta "motorcycles are a deathtrap" in here.
Hi, I've been riding for 10 years on all different kinds of machines through many lengths of commute/fun. allow me to be abrupt motorcycles cost more than a Prius to own. The tires don't last as long, the maintenance is more frequent, obviously the gear you absolutely should be wearing is expensive but hey if none of that bothers you please continue to enjoy riding.
It's not very active but there's a motorcycle community here on lemmy, please join us ;)
Just to get some varying opinions, can anyone that’s died on a motorcycle chip in with their experience?
I've lost I think 5 personal friends who rode. You know what each of them had in common? Wreckless driving.
If they died on the motorcycle they definitely weren't driving wrecklessly. You probably mean reckless
Had to look this up because I never realized there was a difference.
You are correct.
