The stats can be a bit deceptive when it comes to motorbikes. Focusing on the first world (where I know the situation) the death rate for 16-24 year old males is massive relative to cars while 25+ is much closer to normal vehicle deaths.
In terms of organ donation, that is because an astonishing amount of people don't wear a helmet when on a motorcycle or wear one of those fashionable open-face helmets.
Many people are also unaware you can get airbags for motorcyclists (https://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/alpinestars-tech-air-5-system https://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/alpinestars-tech-air-5-s...). This is obviously a thing more for first world riders and they are expensive but are very effective at preventing any injury you can't walk away from (assuming you also wear a proper helmet like I mentioned).
