Are young riders today the same as we were in the 70's,80'sand 90's?

Here is a video where I talk about how I believe we are different. In the 70' we considered ourselves as sort of daredevils. Society in general looked at us as a little strange in that we rode what were considered dangerous machines and the accident statistics backed up their opinion. Today, young riders seem to be influenced by electronics that we could not even imagine. We talked about top speed, power and acceleration. Times change of course but I am many others believe we experienced the golden age. I certainly would not want to trade places with todays riders.
