Yuk. No chance of being thrown clear when your bike is sliding underneath another vehicle, then?

Is that pillion wearing a seat belt?!!

i reckon that leg bar looks just right to hyperextend the riders knee sideways, then rip your leg clean off at the knee as the weight of the bike bears down on it

like the way he's got a mr-ultra-safety-conscious bike but is still happy to wear slip on shoes and a pair of jeans and no gloves....

Possibly in a very low speed drop? Assuming the pillion stays completely rigid of course :roll:

but even in a low speed ding you are more likely to not keep your arms close to your body, imagine if one got caught under the bar with the weight of that car...feels wrong to call it a bike
