"Supersports are built on racing platforms but modified for the highway and
sold to consumers. They’re especially popular with riders younger than 30.
With their light weight and powerful engines, supersports are all about
speed. They typically have more horsepower per pound than other bikes. A
2006 model Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R, for example, produces 111 horsepower
and weighs 404 pounds. In contrast, the 2006 model Harley-Davidson Ultra
Classic Electra Glide, a touring motorcycle, produces 65 horsepower and
weighs 788 pounds."
"In fatal crashes, the average engine size in all classes of motorcycles has
risen sharply. Among motorcycle drivers killed in 2005, 33 percent drove
motorcycles with engine sizes larger than 1,200 cubic centimeters (cc),
compared with 26 percent in 2000 and 17 percent in 1997."
Crash characteristics: Speeding and driver error were bigger factors in
fatal crashes of supersport and sport and unclad sport bikes compared with
other classes of motorcycles. Speed was cited in 57 percent of supersport
riders’ fatal crashes in 2005 and 46 percent of the fatal crashes of sport
and unclad sport riders. Speed was a factor in 27 percent of fatal crashes
among riders on cruisers and standards and 22 percent on touring
motorcycles.
Alcohol also is a problem in fatal crashes of motorcyclists, although less so
than among passenger vehicle drivers. In 2005 it was a factor in the fatal
crashes of 19 percent of supersport riders and 23 percent of sport and
unclad sport riders."
