Bikes really are unsafe
Discussion
Having read the ongoing threads about the two top end sportsbikes (S1000RR and Panigale), one of which has a recall for a pretty major failure and the other having a high speed weave, like the Pan European a few years back. It's becoming clear that bikes are inherently unsafe.
No matter how I ride or how much care I take, there will always be an underlying manufacturung defect within them. There's been some bad press for all the major makes from fork failures, to frames snapping and so on.
Given that I'm the breadwinner, is it fair for me to jack it in and sell the bikes, as I'm worried I could end up as a statistic in someone else's law suit?

It's got nothing to do with insurance levels (not least as some of you seem not to understand what Critical Illness covers anyway). It's more to do with the fact that it's clear that bikes are now becoming bady manufactured piles of crap and I don't want to die as a result of someone else's mistake.
