the biggest way to make a motorcycle safer, IMO, is remove the need for shifting. Lower the center of gravity, reduce the weight, increase the wind protection, make the riding stance really comfortable. Make it easily accommodate a backpack, or a passenger, or both.

Generally, it seems like one can entertain the best parts of a bicycle, feet, and a car, and a motorcycle, all in one.
