Sorry Papa-r, but I vote to keep pic's like this out of the forum. Too tragic!!!!!!! This site has always so far been positive and funny. Can't we keep it that way.
These images may be the begining of others posting up pic's of motorcycle accidents trying to go one better than the last. If members want to see this kind of stuff, let 'em Google it or watch the You-Tube clips. There's certainly plenty of it available to browse.
Sure these images you posted are'nt exactly graphical and are very tame compared to what I've seen but even still they are enough to churn the stomach after your mind fills in the blanks.

Just my opinion.
sorry man but this is the reality of driving a bike, there a risks involved. I have no problem with these pics, if there was a body involved that would be different. I see this for a living so maybe i have a really thick skin but it also a good reminder for those out there to think and ride!

It's not the reality of riding a bike. If so we will all end up this way. What it is, is the stupidity of riding a bike. I know many riders with many years of safe riding and accident free. That is reality. Stupidity is the above images of pulling 300kmh on a public road and winding up dead.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not opposed to these images. Before I started riding on the roads I spent a great deal of time looking at stuff like this to give myself a good solid grounding of what can happen if you push the limits. I just dont think these images are necessary to post up on a site like this. There's always a time and a place and this isn't that place.

Cheers. BB.
whether you want to believe it or not this is the reality, it does not mean that everyone will end up like this. Motorbikes are a dangerous hobby and yes some people end up dead because if their own actions and being a dumb ass but sometimes it is the other drivers that are dumb asses. If this bothers you too much, quit coming back to the post. I think most of us our big boys and girls and can deal with the picture with no negative affect on us.

If I remember right .These are pictures from a bike show ,it was on display.
Probably to remind people to make sure you cancel your indicators ,or buy leathers >>>> in the stand next door.
I hate to see pictures and never read crash or near miss threads in some forums I'm on ,I know the dangers and have seen my #1 riding mate in hospital bed.....,then he pulls the bed sheet back and his leg it gone. {Thats MickyB from NR for the Aussie guys .Not many know he lost his leg}.
I think a few of these shots hit home to some of the younger guys and girls ,that speeding can kill you and maybe spending $400 on training then a new Yoshi pipe "might" be a better way to spend your money.
I hate to see alot of these posts ,but this one is to make a point and its a crazy picture and you will notice Pap r ..had sad smileys
