[ST] Re: Air Horns

["Stuart Mumford" <s2mumford@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

What that study means is that statistically speaking, for every 7 rider
years, there is one fatal motorcycle wreck.
So if 2 squids buy Hayabusas and bite the big one on their first ride,
someone will have 21 years of safe daily rides before he statistically
should have a fatal crash.
I agree, we here in So Cal should ride with care, and I strongly recommend
the MSF course to tip the odds in your favor.

I think we all know, you can make numbers support any argument you like if
you try hard enough.

And it's a proven fact that 86% of statistics are bullshit anyway.

Thanks

The too many idiots must be the reason behind the results of a study a
friend of mine, retired from LA Co Sheriff, told me about.  Apparently LASO
studied motorcycle-involved accidents in LA and discovered that if you ride
daily, within seven years you'll be involved in a fatal accident.  Not just
an accident, but fatal.  Yikes!  Don't mean to scare you, but just be
careful down there!
