It was just to make awareness to the fact, not for you to say it's no big deal people die,

Last week @ rugters an old high-school girlfriend passed way and then in the VT shooting, my sister's friend died as well. She goes there too btw, Just don't take life for granted; show a little appreciating or maybe sympathy people like you should not bother other saying anything.

That sucks!! I had a bike and sold it because a friend of mine died driving his. He was actually merging and looked back to cut over. There was a car stuck in his lane and he hit it. Bikes are bad news. No protection.

Well the looks of where he hit the truck I wonder if maybe the truck didnt get into the next lane right before the crash. I would be willing to bet the truck moved over and he didnt see the fast moving bike. I have seen **** like that and that almost happened to me and several others on a trip to Bay City MI from Flint. I know when I am passing cars and trucks I am not always in the #2 "Middle" lane of the "lane" For a motorcycle you have 3 lanes on each road lane Left Middle and Right. Middle lane is the most dangerous as that is where all the oil and **** drops the most. So if he was ridding the Far right of a lane to the trucks left and the truck changed over to the left lane thats how that could of happened.

agree, I own sport bike myself, ive seen alot of videos / stunts / crushes whatever. I knew when i will buy the bike myself i will never stunt or pull some crazy ****. Friend of my brother died, my bro almost lost his life - he sold his bike.
Im getting ready my bike for this summer, I pray each time i get on. I always wear full protection from helm to boots. Do I look stupid? to some people maybe yes. I CANT ****ing stand people with no helm, + sometimes you see a girl on the back seat no helm neither "beeing cool" . I cant stunt anyways because my bike is lower and stretch. I enjoy sunday mornings the most where theres is no traffic. Sometimes my friends ***** at me that i go too slow and cant keep up. "sorry" well, Be smart guys and have your eyes open, i hate bike accidents but i still love riding.

When you are going fast enough all that gear will not matter.
