If those figures are true, especially the 67K on the Rebel, then you should have outridden your asinine comments a long time ago.

I'll try and spell it out for you since you seem to have trouble following the frecking logic.
Your first wise crack did not mention the riders skill AT ALL. You were compareing bikes!! And ONLY bikes!!.
Then when you are told about the riders different skill levels and the riders error causeing the accident, THEN you jump ship and get on the riders stupidity.
Now for you brilliant remark about a 700lb bike. Study the clip and you will see the rider DID make the pass!! HE got by and locked it up and went over. HE TARGET FIXIATED!!! He went right over where he was looking!! That's why it's call target fixiated!! If you haven't learned that in 67Gs of rideing look it up!!
Had the rider not locked his eyes on the edge of the road but looked thru the curve and pushed right and then pushed left he VERY LIKEILY WOULD HAVE MADE THE PASS AND THE TURNs SECESSFULLY!!!
And Target Fixiated is a Mistake that MOSTLY New riders make it IS NOT specific to Harleys or Hondas or Mopeds.
And if you will watch Yellow Wolfs video you should see a couple of sets of curves much like what the Harley rider screwed up on, but Yellow Wolf runs them Hard and fast and is sucessiful on them. So your 700lb bike spew dosn't quite wash either!
Kinda funny a guy with miles on a baby 450 is NOW an expert on 700lb motorcycles?

If the TN guy is done, I'm good. You made your point, clear. Fair enough.
