    Motorcycles aren’t bad for your health. Crashing them is, but just driving them isn’t, even doing it a lot. Unlike the other things you mentioned where doing them a lot is unhealthy.

      Vaping isn’t bad for your health, it’s what you put into the vape that might be. There are already commonly used medical technologies that are adjacent to vaping, and many researchers think we will be able to use vaping in the future to replace hypodermic needles in some situations.

      They are statistically bad for your health.

      By your own argument, you would agree with the statement: “Smoking cigarettes isn’t bad for your health. Lung cancer is.”

        Nope, doesn’t need to end in lung cancer for it to be bad.

        Take it this way:

        You can drive motorcycle for hours every day for years and not take any health casualties from it.

        You can’t smoke cigarettes every day for years and not take any health casualties from it.
