[xBhp Universal Thread]: Are you a risky rider? Risk assessment article - xBhp.com : The Global Indian Biking Community

iamvik · 12-11-2009, 01:22 PM

Here is a very interesting and useful article I found in Superbike magazine November 2009 issue.

It talks about how motorcycle riders assess risk and how they manage it. There is also a small self-quiz to assess your own riding riskiness.

Moderator, please move this thread if you find it appropriate. I would like the maximum number of people to read it and benefit from it.
