Motorcycling feels odd in that list of otherwise self-inflicted harms.
Sure, one can run into brick wall in a solo accident. But, often it's someone else that kills the motorcyclist.

You're talking like if you were to run across a live gun range and get shot it's not really your fault, but instead it was the shooter that killed you. That may be technically true but you knew the risks were basically a certainty and chose to do it anyway.
