Weird statistic coming up: Between October 2007 and October 2008, 24 active-duty Marines were among the 4,810 annual motorcycle fatalities. So while active duty Marines only make up 0.064% of the US population, they accounted for 0.5% of the motorcycle deaths. That means that Marines accounted for more than 10 times the motorcycle casualties than you would expect.
Also, these Marines apparently like their sport bikes over Harleys. 78 percent of motorcycle mishaps in the Marines occurred on a sport bike, compared to 38 percent nationally.
