That's where you're sadly wrong again and don't realize it!
Amazing how you've conceded your 'helmets don't work' position to 'wear a helmet plus be also careful when you ride' when no one said 'all you need to do to be safe is wear a helmet'.
P.S. That list of bikes in your signature - real world or figments of your imagination like your 'research'?
