Came across this last night - an interesting read. Note the number of black helmets involved in motorcycle crashes. http://www.monash.edu.au/muarc/reports/atsb174.html
good fine Brad, it would seem 250's are significantly safer than some of the bigger bikes Motorcycle factors The factors which were found to significantly increase crash risk after adjustment for potential confounding factors were:
Yeah there's some compelling statistics in there. I've been hankering after a new black Shoei helmet (I feel my current RED Shoei is a bit big) but I'll be sticking to red I reckon.
Well done Brad, really enjoyed the case control study. Much information to digest and peruse. Somehow, the numbers of larger capacity bikes would give these readings. Going to read this several times and deduct some info. Thanks again mate, a very find indeed Phil
