Great work, Inspiron. (I'm a paramedic so I read through to make sure your info was accurate.)
A few more things to consider:
1.) If you suspect a head and/or neck injury DO NOT remove the biker's helmet unless it interferes with the victim's airway.
A good way around having to take the helmet off, is to place some object (examples: your jacket, extra shirt, etc) under the victims shoulder blades to elevate them enough to keep the airway open and the spine in a straight line.
2.) If the patient does not have a pulse, perform chest compressions for at least 1 minute before leaving the scene to call for help.
Never leave a scene where you have provided any type of medical help until you are relieved by someone more qualified than yourself. Most states will hold You liable for anything positive or negative that happens to this victim. They can sue you for abandonment and in some cases negligence.
3.) In case you didn't catch it the first time, Your personal safety in priority # 1.
