Jeff Foley after getting a motorcycle on his 40th birthday previous year, followed
by the weekend training course that allows him a license. Within the first few
months, the 450-pound, low slung cruising bike fell over the twice while he was
riding.
The chief injury was Foley’s pride. The first time, he was
pulling out slowly and turning in a parking lot. The second time his wife was
at the back seat.
Foley told, “Both
times were just as I was starting to get a little bit cocky, “, “I’m
exceptionally fortunate that I dropped it at a standstill, not 50 or 60 miles
an hour.
Safety research shows, the most dangerous time for the
motorcyclists by far is their first year. They are peaking at the first month. Another
research shows that licensing courses that fast-track the time it takes to get
on the road don’t lower down the crash risks and may even raise them.
With the riding season getting under way in the Northeast,
his second, Foley has become more cautious on his 800c Intruder, which falls in
the middle of the power range that manufacturers have generally ramped up over
a generation. He’s also more experienced and quietly confident and hasn’t
dropped the bike again.
He loves riding back roads but won’t go fast on turns he
doesn’t know. He tries to contain his enthusiasm for what he calls an
exhilarating and Zen pastime that lets him forget everything else. “Even though
a motorcycle is not a toy he said. It awakens the child inside me.
An institute study has shown that 22 percent of nearly 57000
collusion claims from 2003 to 2007 occurred in the first 30 days after the policy
of motorcycle insurance in Foley Al took effect. The rate
dropped one third in the second month and almost two third after six months.
