While I don't agree with the "been down" or "going to be down" options. I do believe that 99% of riders do have a fall. Personally I've only had one fall, and it trying to stop at an intersection when my pistons seized on my brakes. Thankfully it was on my old zx2r 250c and easy to have fixed, and there was only minor damage to the bike. But I started riding with the understanding that there is all likelyhood that I will come off, and that it is something to work to avoid, but also to accept as a reality. That is the mindset of everyone I personally ride with and know. It works, and it keeps you from feeling too frustrated/upset with yourself in the event that you do go down. It would be like driving a car, but saying you will never scratch it. These things happen. Work to stop them and be prepared. If we never crashed we wouldn't need gear.

Sorry for the rant.. topic close to my heart..
