Are you thinking of sport bikes or cruisers? I've been on a number of large rides composed of mostly cruisers. Almost any time you see them in big groups its a benefit ride for something and everyone is very civilized and considerate. I've been on several rides to benefit homeless veterans with about 100 bikes and the largest was to help the families of two firefighters, one was killed and the other in critical condition when a tire blew on the firetruck at highway speed and it rolled over. Right around 300 bikes on that one and nobody was a dick bag.

Looks like he was dying to know what was in that semi's trailer.

In my experience truck drivers brake suddenly and for no reason on frequent occasion.
Also nowadays rapefugees and geriatrics are driving trucks.
Almost got smeared by one that pulled out on ne

Sport bikes with a good rider can actually brake quite well. I think things like in your pic are more the result of bikers being sikk cunts doing 150mph highway runs.

>>15954345
Bikers should accept the fact that they are 90% less visible than a miata and it's their fault for buying a stupid vehicle.

you have to yield to those with right of way regardless of their vehicle

Most of the cruiser demographic is older man who are chill.
A lot of Sport and Super Sport riders are younger guys who probably used drug money to buy their bikes.

It's no wonder that crusers tend to be more civilised.

Saw a rolling thunder ride in the small town i was going to school in.

Home town kid had died in Iraq and Westborough Baptist were coming to protest .

The entire town was full of bikers, cops on bikes, active and retired mil. A bunch of priests on motorcycles. It was a trip.

Local gas station gave all the bikers 50% off gas, local hotels gave free rooms. Shit was crazy

>>15954345
Of course.

Just because you're too afraid to ride doesn't mean others are stupid for riding them. If he was in a car, same speed he would probably be just as dead, maybe some more gore.

If you hit another car at 50mph you'll probably survive if in another car.

If you hit another car at 50mph on a bike and you're not dressed up like a soldier, you are kill. Even if you have all the gear, if your helmeted head hits anything you can kiss your ass goodbye.

>>15955976
Okay but he was going 120, if he didn't have a massive metal wall in front of him he probably would have been thrown and lived

I've crashes a bike at 70 in a t shirt and jeans and walked away from it

>>15955976
i hit a Landrover 110 at 55, it reversed into my path.
only protection was an open face helmet and a pair of leather gloves.
yeah, ok i broke both legs pretty badly, but i wasn't kill.

watched a BMW doing about 40 hit a lamp post flip mid air and land roof down on another BMW which was stationary in traffic, both drivers were kill.

it's all just luck of the draw.

Go fast on a bike. Just once. Pass a semi or something. It's fucking terrifying. Now look at your spedo and realize that quick wrist flick got you from 60 to 90, not 60 to 70. Actually, just ride a bike normally over a typical road (segmented pavement, grooved pavement, tar snakes, dips and hills, cracks, the works). You'll probably reconsider ever violating the speed limit again unless the road is perfectly clean, smooth, dry, and fucking empty with absolutely no cover for cops, animals, or hobos to come from. In other words, track day only brah.

Motorcycles are the last true vestige of natural selection.

Indeed commander. The footage appears to show the car did in fact have his signal on when changing lanes. However, the signal was not activated until immediately before the car began switching lanes which is counter to standard turn-signal protocol of activation at least a few seconds before the lane change commences.

>>15956328
however the motorcycle had no signal on and was trying to frantically weave through traffic like everyone on the road wanted to cut him off

>ride like you're invisible
>^no, don't actually do that

>>15956287
I'm terrified by stop and go, not overtaking

>>15955976
>if your helmeted head hits anything youre dead

Do you know how helmets are designed anon?

>>15959001
Bike helmets are for protecting your head when it hits the ground, not slamming into a truck at 100mph.

>>15959015
I don't think a car is going offer much protection slamming into a truck at 100mph.

>>15959015
They're an energy management system, regardless of what it hits. People have smashed into cars and the helmet does impact it, and they're fine. Not everytime though, that guy who mashed the semi was fucked. Helmet technology is getting better though.

>>15955555
Yeah, but you don't wind up with your face slammed into the back of a semi for being an idiot here

What town was that if you don't mind me asking? I actually live in Topeka where the Westboro fucktards are based out of. Literally everyone in this city loves to hate them. The only reason they get away with their shit and nobody retaliates is because a bunch of them are lawyers and will legally screw you in the ass if you try to fuck with them. I don't see them out with their signs as much since Fred Phelps died, but it's guaranteed if you do see them on the street corner nearly everyone driving by will be flipping them off. Even people I know who are against homosexuality think that group takes their shit way overboard.

Also these blind spot eliminators should be on every vehicle. It would probably decrease a lot of accidents due to failure to check.

>>15954786
That's a dead driver of that car.

Fuck, this thread is feel sooooo good hahaha.

>>15955809
Blunt force trauma to the chest and or his neck broke.

those doors are pretty sturdy and from experience will hold up a to fork lift running into them, for him to have busted through he was going a speed that he would not have survived regardless of what he hit.

>>15960584
Implying people actually check mirrors. Most drivers should have their licenses revoked.

>>15960623
They're nice to have if you actually check them

>>15955976
Depends on the situation and vehicle.

Cars can hit shit and pin their drivers, and if the car catches on fire they're doomed.

If thrown from a bike and not hit something immediately, or thrown in such a way as to break a neck a biker can survive.

Motogp riders regularly survive wrecks well above 50mph but they are on a track too so.

Unfortunately, this is true when it comes to what I would argue to be the majority of motorcycle accidents. Not only is the wrist/throttle dynamic so much more engaging than some retarded pleb-tier pedal, but the power to weight ratio makes even the heaviest of cruisers ridiculously fast. I also have a theory that the small profile of a motorcycle creates a disillusionment of sorts where the rider feels more comfortable than they should.

This isn't even mentioning the fact that many motorcyclists literally ride RACE REPLICAS. The average consumer doesn't have access to this in the world of cars. $3,000 gets you a motorcycle that is probably 2% different from what they actually use in the highest level of motorcycle racing. You niggers probably can't even begin to fathom how a machine like that behaves.

But that is pretty much what it comes down. Accidents don't happen any less in the world of cars, it's just that they have better braking and aren't going as fast, so they are able to avoid them better. Motorcyclists are fucked. They are too powerful

Man, around these parts sport bikes are usually just going fast(er).

The Harley fags are just out to make noise and piss everyone off. Seriously. They're all owned by middle age guys trying to act hard, or young oilfield/construction/Labor job scubs who need attention.

Red light? BRAPBRAPBRAPBRAP
Stop sign? BRAPBRAPBRAPBRAP
Straight section of town with houses on both sides? Slow down to crawling speeds and then BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAP.

And the cunts look back at you and rev when you roll closer to them, seemingly oblivious that they've slowed down to 30 in a 45 just so they can accelerate again.

I hope it's just my local population, but seriously. Fuck cruiser bikes.
