I think that qualifies as considerable experience. I have no idea how many miles I rode over the years but I was never in a situation where the bike was my sole transportation for any length of time.
I sold the CBX last year and am now retired from riding (or at least owning) a motorcycle. I guess I'm like the rare boxer who can retire undefeated. 
Here's one more bit of heresy. Whenever I was allowed to do so, I went without my helmet. Can't stand 'em. |
Impressive streak of luck especially with the helmet statement but I still stand by my statement given enough time and enough miles I really believe you will have an accident if you ride a motorcycle. Granted my worst currently is a couple of dumbass drops but no real accidents. I fully expect to have one anyday and can only hope that I live through it.
