[QUOTE="blufjr, post: 1120244, member: 737"] Why is real life just different from the questions? 6 accidents while riding 314,000 miles. At 12, 72 and 96K accidents were minor with minor cost less than $200 for repairs, I almost feel guilty for mentioning them. The last 3 at 183, 280 and 295K required major bike repairs, all over $4,500, but only one required a hospital visit. @ 12K Someone ran into me at a stop, went down. 2nd year of riding. @ 72K Low side going around a 15mph corner. Lack of skill. 6th year of riding. @ 96K Someone ran into me, stayed up. 7th year of riding. @ 183K Someone ran into me, went down. 12th year of riding. @ 280K Gravel, crashed in the middle of the road, went down. 17th yr of riding. @ 295K Deer stryke in the middle of the road, stayed up. 17th yr of riding @ 314K today no accident.
