Motorcycles have 27x the death rate as cars per mile driven. Male drivers have 2-3x the death rate of female drivers (for the age range most of you are in, that's even higher).

Look into getting an adventure/touring bike. I never thought I would be interested in long rides but got a Ducati Multistrada about 5 years ago and put 40K miles on it in 2 years. I am looking for a BMW 1250 now and planning a trip to Alaska for the summer with some friends. Being able to go from asphalte to dirt without having to worry is a blast.

I really love the scrambler look and feel; love my ducati scrambler.

I commute and ride hillside/mountain/back-country roads for fun, not really pushing it. I don't do group rides.

I'm just looking for an upgrade to my scrambler, in a similar style but with a bit more power. I've never done any real off-road riding besides fire trails.

Love the BMW look, it seems to fit what I'm looking for and I'm planning on doing a test ride soon.

Not being fully aware of what I was doing / was distracted. I went into a low speed turn into my parking complex, but didn't give the bike enough power, I stalled mid turn and went down like a moron turning into my parking space.

Most fatal crashes involve a speeding rider, and a huge chunk of them involve an intoxicated rider.
Sure you can't prevent some freak accident of an oncoming car moving into your lane, and there is always a risk of a distracted driver rear ending you at full speed when you're the only vehicle stopped at a light, but its not like safe riders are just dying left and right. By the numbers the people dying are people that were asking for it.
Ride sane, wear crash armor, wear a full helmet, and watch your mirrors every time you're stopped and you'll be fine.

Yes, retard, you were wrong. Every single topic you broached you were dead wrong about, and you're so overwhelmingly astoundingly immature that you can't just stop talking out of your ass like a little babby.
Individually each of these statistics is meaningful: Fatalities in which speed was a factor, fatalities in which no helmet was used, and fatalities in which alcohol was a factor.
There just so happens to be enormous overlap between these three key factors, which is something that has been known and reported on forever.
The riders most likely to die are speeding, intoxicated, and not wearing proper gear. They are the ones asking for it.

If you ride sane, wear crash armor, wear a full helmet, and watch your mirrors every time you're stopped you'll be fine.

Holy shit just yesterday I saved the exact pic on my phone because I want to get it. However I am thinking on waiting for the 2021 model because I like the headlight more.

You can always get a cheap used KLR and ride on trails and fire roads away from traffic. Riding is legitimately the most fun I've ever had.

Rode for 12 years before giving up motorcycles a few years ago. Did many trips across the country. Kept me out of trouble and gave me something to live for.

Post divorce depression and a paticularly bad close call made me leave motorcycles for good. I've moved on to things that make me just as happy now, as motorcycles did back then. I wish all the riders in this thread the best. Keep the rubber side down.

Well I live in Cali Bay Area so it would be city driving for me if I wanted to get into riding. Unfortunately I don't trust retards with my life so I'll never ride

Already have a ducati scrambler desert sled but I want to get a nice dirt bike to fuck around in the desert with. Thought I'd take the scrambler offrl roading more but it's too fucking pretty and I don't want to drop it.

I’m from the Bay Area also. Don’t get a bike unless you only use it for scenic cruises through the countryside. Riding in the city/freeway is shitty

This bike can do everything as long as you don't want to go over 110mph or 150 miles on a tank
