May be Dean, perhaps because in the main they are the group who can afford to buy and insure the current range of super-bikes?

I took my bike test in my 30s (CBT and two tier test route) so not really a born again biker, more a need to find out what I was missing. I believe it made me a much better driver, far more aware of other road users, road conditions, etc. I gave it up after nearly being wiped out twice in a fortnight at a local roundabout by others, who when entering the roundabout, either genuinely didn't see me (charitable and I think not) or more probably saw me and didn't care!
