Default rider down

damn yall, saw a bad wreck today, a fellow honda rider had a bad day. looks like a black acura tl pulled out in front of him on a 30 mph road. the bike was broke in two , it looked like a 600rr,red, was barley recognizable, the rider laying in the road(with no helmet or gloves or any other gear)made me feel awful .i could not stop to help, the cops were running every body away.this happened less than a mile from my house. you just feel helpless seeing a fellow rider down in the middle of the road. i know that that guy could not have lived too far away and was probrobaly takin a quick trip and pow a life changing wreck. i wish that fellow would have had his gear on. this wreck really funked me up.guys and gals ,please wear your gear.

Darwin-ism at it's finest. He should have been on a GSXR.

That's bull****, he shouldn't have been on any bike. Grow up.

If the bike was broke in 2 then he was going well above 30 and may have caused the accident. The driver of the car can't see a speeding bike all the time, you know it's true. I may be wrong but it takes a hell of a lot of force to break the back of a bike like that.

Never good to hear about this kind of thing.
