    The size of the bike doesn't kill you, it's usually the Idiots that you share the road with (that includes the most import Idiot, the one riding the bike your on). If you don't treat your bike with respect and don't get skilled at handeling it, you are more likely to get killed.

    Also as you can see in my name i have a K5 GSX-R600 which has MORE power than a desiel of a SV1000S....

    But do you know what!!!???? Who gives a fuck, we like bikes and bikes are fun to ride no matter what size they are.... Loosebruce had a blast on a ZXR250 and loved it even though he raves on about his 1000...
    Is your RG standard?

    I was speaking with a german guy last night who is here on an oe for 8 months and he told me 5000 people aged between 18 and 21 kill them selves each year on motorcycles, no other vehicles involved, I dont know how true this is though.

    I saw a total Ghost Rider wannabe today!

    Black Hayabusa, black leathers, black helmet with a black visor. He was a badass. And since I was on the BMX at the time, I gave him the "Rock On" hand signal and pulled a wheelie for him. He waved back.

    Ghost rider = teh mantis

    But in KB stats most of the crashes on KB rides are on sub 1000cc bikes,does this mean we should all be on 1000cc+?
