You will never regret selling your donorcycle. Donorcycle is the term used by the trauma center in our northern home. They have seen so many tragedies for cycle operators and passengers. The truth is, people hurry and don't inspect the road or parking lots for motorcycle activity. Heck, so many people can't even hear their vehicle warning beep or turn their necks to see behind them not to mention oncoming traffic.

It doesn't matter how careful one is, the opportunity is rich for early death or traumatic, unrepairable injuries. We sold our cycle years ago when we realized the odds were against us after some close calls even though we were ever vigilant.
