101-250 cc bikes account for 9% of bikes on the road yet are involved in 13% of accidents
751 and up account for 23 % of the bikes on the road and only account for 16% of accidents. So based on the number of bikes statistically speaking the 751 cc and up bikes are safer then 101-250 cc group.
These stats are taken from the Hurt report via Proficient Motorcycling by David L Hough.

You can make stats say anything you want them to say if you twist them a little.
These stats don't have anything to do with experience level do they???
