It seems that the motorcycle industry in the U.S is shrinking. Young people are no longer starting to ride. Cars are becoming almost automatic. They self park, have warning systems, air bags and emergency brake on their own. Motorcycling remains a risky way to travel.
I see very few people commuting on motorcycles and with the shit show of traffic in the Bay Area even more dangerous. It seems fewer and fewer people want to risk riding with gaggles of distracted and angry cagers. A lot of people ride, dirt, track and weekend twisty riding but this is more sport or hobby than transportation.
So how do you see it? Will motorcycles continue as a viable form of transportation or will it just slowly become more of just a sport or hobby with people riding dirt, track or weekend twisty roads.
