If you ride carefully and pay attention you are fine,its the morons going over 100mph on motorways are people who get killed along with the people dangerousley going in between cars without checking .Its ok to weave between them but be careful

Motorcycle...

Cause cars are boring. You can't do wheelies in a car and stunting is heaps cooler on bikes (and harder) > check out www.cunningstunts.com to see what I mean!

We're an Aussie group going since 1999 approx. Check my profile under TEAM > J-RAD!!!

Bikes are so much better than cars.Amazingly cheap aswell,like 12 grand for hayabusa lol

Im taking my bike licence soon as I can.If I pass, in the uk I will have to stay on a 250 for 2 years before being allowed to get any bike.

I really want a triumph speed triple,kawasaki er6 and another one but forgot the name

When I pass I might buy the ninja 250

Nice!!

I own a 2006 GSXR1000 built to Superbike spec so has 198BHP at the wheels, Ohlins everything.....mad machine.......build cost was 50K (AUS) inc the bike and is the most mental thing I've ever ridden. At Phillip Island I went through the speed trap at over a genuine 300kms/hr

They're only cheap because there's very little to them compared to a car.

For me, car. I feel safe driving my car, whereas I'd probably fall down a ditch on a motorbike

Cars are big so they need 5x the stuff needed to make a bike

I like cars but I find them boring and dull.I like filtering through traffic on motorway on back of dads bike

I suppose the main argument is comfort vs speed (in terms of filtering through traffic, as you say)

As your mom or dad will say, you can drive as carefully as you can.. but that doesn't mean the other drivers are as careful as you are. You could be a pro, and still get killed by careless drivers. Or by unpredictable weather.

That said, it would depend on my age and current life. Right now? I would definitely choose a bike over a car any day. But if I had a girlfriend or family, or lived where it snowed and rained every day.. car.

I never ridden one, but it just looks like you have a lot more freedom than a car. I hate being cramped inside them.. and on the interstate/main roads can zip, zoom on by! Plus they're cheap, and can save you a bunch of money!

The ammount of money and time my dad saves is amazing.

My dad has a car and bike so he has best of both worlds really.

Vykk why would you chose a bike over car on your current life?

Nah that's bullocks.........as a 'ROAD' rider you should look at every single car in your proximity as thouigh theyu're out to kill you..........if you do this you'll NEVER hit another car.

Also in Defensive Riding classes for bikes they teach you that EVERY SINGLE ACCIDENT is your own fault (even if it's not) cause you should always be looking out for traffic AND always give youself an option out of any given situation...........

If you follow both rules you have a far better chance
