Tomsti... sure, I have seen many people hurt on bikes. A friend's bike, on a back highway at 2 AM, flipped right before my eyes at over 110 mph, (front end shimmy) I have had a few spills myself, back in my younger years (learning my limits sounds like a good explanation for this
) and have lost rear wheel traction at over 90 mph in hard corners. It's double dog scary, and one error then, you are toast. I no longer tempt fate in this regard, although I sometimes do some spirited back road work. Any machine can lose it, hopefully in a car with a good roll bar at least you might survive. Or maybe not. My buddy survived the 110 MPH flip with only minor injuries. It was wierd but true, he was catapulted from the bike immediately, and hit water after two body-barrel rolls, and was wearing a helmet.
