Can you find an alternative method to get your point across to your friend to ride safely other than showing your friend that gore? ???

Is the goal of that site to ride safe and wear safety gear or to not ride at all?

There is good safety info in there but it's hard to find amongst the gore.

Here's a great book I recommend for riders of any experience. It's called "Proficient Motorcycling: The Ultimate Guide to Riding Well". I've read it more than a few times.

alot of those accidents on that site were the riders fault. most of those can be avoided if they were not speedin or if they were paying attention.

Dress for the crash, not for the ride!!!

I've been riding on the street for 25 years, been down twice. Luckily no major injuries. It can definitely happen.

well said i showed him the site and he said it was a real eye opener so i think it changed his mined about the helmet thing
