there was a topic on here not to long ago were a guy on a street bike ran into the back of a semi so i can show a buddy it ive looked for like two hours and still havent found it does any body no where it is???
That is the one where the dudes head was stuck in the back door of the trailer and was dragged for a while?
Can you find an alternative method to get your point across to your friend to ride safely other than showing your friend that gore? ???

Is the goal of that site to ride safe and wear safety gear or to not ride at all?

that site was kinda wierd i dont want him to stop riding thats what it made me feel like anyway
There is good safety info in there but it's hard to find amongst the gore.
Here's a great book I recommend for riders of any experience. It's called "Proficient Motorcycling: The Ultimate Guide to Riding Well". I've read it more than a few times.

yeah i just want to show him he doesnt believe me and he doesnt like wearing helmets
Show him that one site then. It has good shock value.
alot of those accidents on that site were the riders fault. most of those can be avoided if they were not speedin or if they were paying attention.
Dress for the crash, not for the ride!!!
I've been riding on the street for 25 years, been down twice. Luckily no major injuries. It can definitely happen.
