Maybe that's good when hitting a tree? Slower deceleration, less force.

  I think they meant that it's more difficult to stop before beginning to impact the tree.

    Still. If I'm going to hit a tree, I'd rather drive a tank than a motorbike.

      Cars have crumple zones which a motorbike does not. A lighter car requires less work from the crumple zone to decelerate the car into non-fatal territory than a heavy car.
