Aging bikers at greater risk of injury, death

Figures never lie, but liars always figure.
Younger people are riding less (the pussification factor?), older people are riding more, including more inexperienced riders...... so, yeah, there's going to be an increasing number of older riders in accidents.

Old people die easier than the young, duh. A 65 yr old loses at best 15+/- years of possibly good living. A 20 loses, well you do the math. Kinda offsets the dying factor. When I rode @ 20 dying wasn't on my mind, damn if it will at 65.

To follow its demographics, maybe Harley should get into the 2-wheeled motorized wheelchair business, maybe franchised retirement homes to go with them, then their own line of Hog caskets, then grave yards named Hog Heaven. Then what, guys help me out.
