The performance of an average motorcycle is on par with a Ferrari or Lamborgini. Toss an aggressive, inexperienced driver onto a crotch rocket and you have an accident waiting to happen.
I drive my motorcycle fairly fast, I also do it where there is minimal traffic. I'm a complete and total wimp while driving through city traffic. I know that everyone is out to get me. Weaving in and out of traffic is a sure way to die.
On the open road, it's a different story. You'd have to ride a bike to fully understand the the feeling of power and control that you have while riding one. I'm perfectly comfortable passing cars at 80+. I'll only do it where it is safe to do so.
