Which is safer.?....Scooter OR Geared.??.

Got myself into all sorts of trouble with geared,from large scale skin removal,broken bones,an a clothing replacement bill from hell -
but with scooters.every time i've had an off or mishap,worst case has been scuffed palms on the gloves,bruise on hip or a slightly wrenched shoulder.
How have other's found mixing the 2.??.

 

Partly true..,was thinking more along the lines of encompassing professional and personal riding,other motorists have a tendancy to view your existance on the road differently dependant on whether your just an average rider going along or a works rider - they're perspectives/attitudes change accordingly,i.e.it does'nt matter how good you are on either style of ride,what's the experience..

 

Was riding around on one of those slowpeds not too long ago/self,only time in my life i've ever thought about life insurance.let alone tpft..

 

Got that one dead on.!,28 should be illegal,never been able to understand why they would put riders in such a dangerous position,considering most limits on average.your looking at 30-40,the t.ats that be should have a size 8 bit of commonsense impacted in their jacksys,
Give a rider a chance,and give him/her a little bit extra on tap,case they need to get themselves outta trouble or at least make traffic flow a little more smoother and fluid instead of obstructive.mk.

 

Apologies Melody....you were a game little 'ped,but it was'nt meant to be..

 

Reverse engineering bikes,back to their 'grass' roots.?..

 

Sammo with my jacket,cept I forgot to adjust the studded flaps on mid-arm area,had a slide.unfortunatly the armour did as well,and scrapped the h.ll out of my elbow..,
Let em get a dose of gravel rash,that'll teach them.,
What really does my head in,is seeing peeps riding without gloves.

 

Cheese grater..

 

Never actually been hit by anything whilst riding a scooter/come bloody close.mind.,i'd agree wholeheartely,that scooter's are safer for sure in low speed spills,but i've had more spills on scooter's in the last 3 years,than prob.my last 50 geared bikes,an on geared any accidents have been bad/very.

 

Get a TGB,plastics prob.solved,they really are purpose built,hand pn heart,that puppys plastic are tough as f..k.!!.
