Not yet this year, and not yet with my fresh FZ6.
Before moving to CA I lived in Italy and had a pretty bad accident with my Kawa er-5: A cager cut my way from a side road while I was cruising at 30mph.
It was not my fault, but somehow I feel guilty: I was talking to my passenger (girlfriend), turning my head about 60 degrees left, and the car arrived from the right.... without chatting I could probably avoid the crash.
Then we bought microphones and speakers for the helmets....
So my advice: NEVER talk to the passenger, not even while you're riding at low speed.
