Not Ranked
I've owned several mikes in my day, from XS400 to a VMax. I'm still licensed. And I've taken several AMA safety riding classes. I know the #2 cause of accidents is people turning left in front of you (#1 was alcohol back then). Yup, ride, er, drive defensively. And sometimes the best defense, is a good offense! (as in, drive fast to stay out of their path!)
But getting back to my comparison, is there any reason to believe that a C2 Vette, a TR6 or an MG, etc, is any more/less dangerous? hmm, forget the lower powered cars actually, let's just compare the Vette.
Hmm, it's 15" longer and weighs about 3,400 lbs. I guess it's not so much about crash-worthyness as it is about keeping it under control. Mine has old tires that don't stick so well, so that needs to be addressed.
Eh, forget it, I'll just drive it and have fun.
Oh, btw, interesting tip about the hand signals. I'll give that a tryu.
