The vast majority of motorcycle deaths have a few things in common. No motorcycle license, drunk, no protective gear. If you take the MSF course and get your license, always wear all the gear, and never ride drunk you're eliminating the contributing factors in like 80% of motorcycle deaths.
And don't just wear any gear, wear gear that actually meets up to date safety standards, and gear that actually makes people visible. North American biker culture tends to be all black leather gear, no armor, and if you're wearing a helmet it's probably a dog shit DOT helmet or maybe a snell one if you're doing racing events. Wear bright colours, get armor, and do not settle for less than an ECE helmet.
Wear motorcycle armor: helmet, protective jacket, protective pants, protective boots, protective gloves, protective elbow pads, and protective knee pads
It'll set you back hundreds of dollars though, and you shouldn't skimp out on safety equipment
