New motorcycle safety report published
« on: September 14, 2019, 03:47:15 PM »
The Motorcycle Safety Foundation paid the Virginia Tech Transportation Institute several million dollars to perform a multi-year motorcycle riding and crash analysis in order to provide a more current study of motorcycle crashes than the one that was originally performed by Harry Hurt in 1981.  Here is a summary of the results of this 100-sample study:  https://www.revzilla.com/common-tread/what-virginia-tech-learned-about-how-and-why-we-crash-our-motorcycles
