@@timjohnson1199 The fenders act in a very minor way like bumpers, as in, if I get bumped on the rear going 15mph because someone is on the phone not realizing they need to stop for the red instead of crawl to the line since well.. there's something behind the line and in front of them... • My tire doesn't get bent, and the fender takes the hit., • Airbags can be done with Helite vests/airbags if you want one, just needs a 60cc Co2 cartridge to replace/re-use, much simpler than paying thousands of dollars to pack the airbag back into the steering column of a car, and just as well where the motorcycle airbags come in various sizes and don't cause broken noses, fractured wrists, sometimes chest and rib cage issues, the motorcycle airbag is fitted to your size AND only needs 60lbs of force to go off, more than accidentally walking from the motorcycle, LESS than that needed for a car, I've had a car go into the ditch before at 45mph and probably 30mph after the wet mud slowed me down and the airbag didn't shoot off, and that's not exactly something unheard of either., • now about the seatbelt.. well, that would be unsafe on motorcycles, just how the locking-pedals for bicycles are considered unsafe unless you're in a race that has closed off roads., • Windshields? Windscreen are mostly present by stock on motorcycles nowadays anyways, but easily accessible on the 3rd party market, for anything from sport bikes to cruiser bikes to even a Grom. *SHORT:* Bikes do have windscreens on most models, aftermarket parts if desired, bikes can also have airbags (A goldwing model, if not still, did have airbag in the motorcycle as an option) that are worn as a vest which are safer than car airbags (talking about driver/rider only, even a passenger can wear an airbag though) and don't break rib cages, break wrists or noses due to the 1-size-fits-all styling and rapid deployment that hits you rather than protects your body on all sides, as for bumpers, yeah, the frame that extends past the read tire, and the fenders protect the motorcycle from getting bent wheels and the frame of motorcycle takes the impact, sorta like the flimsy "bumpers" or front/rear fenders on cars that just have a metal rigid chasis that they are mounted on. *SUPER SHORT* I do realize you /might/ be joking, but people do think like you typed, people are not aware and/or willfully ignorant about the safety of motorcycles.

@@MrCODEmaster00 Is this a troll comment or are you serious? Either way, in case there's a curious kid that really doesn't know out there: The filter you're referring to the is the "in-cabin micro filter" and exists solely to filter allergens out of the A/C intake so your dealer can charge you way too much to change it every couple of oil changes. The main air filter is for the engine and is to keep out dirt, dust, sand, small rocks, bugs, etc. out of the engine as it can score the cylinder walls and cause a loss of compression (and power/fuel economy) and eventually catastrophic engine failure. This is the function of the filter on the motorcycle.
