Riding motorcycles are dangerous depending on your skill level. I have been on motorcycles for 35 years. I have logged 25,000+ kilometers on my Yamaha 135CC Exciter. I do not hesitate to go anywhere. I have been in minor bumps and scrapes but have not been injured more than a bruise. I ride with my wife and 5 year old daughter. There are many places a somewhat unskilled rider may rent and ride, for example Phou Quoc is a great place for someone to familiarize themselves and have a Vietnam motorbiking adventure.

spottedgecko, do you live in VN? Even proficient riders can get into difficulty with VN traffic. And most westerners are accustomed to riding much more powerful bikes, so can mis-estimate the time they need to pass or whatever.
