A motorcycle in Malta makes sense, not only to avoid the traffic but also to find a parking space and to reach certain places. And you can find quite a lot of bikes here !
Riding a motorcycle is always dangerous, but due to the low traffic speed here I think there are more dangerous places in Europe. I was hit 2 times by a car, but no serious damage.
However, after about 20tkm the last 3.5 years on this tiny island I can tell you, a scooter or normal motorcycle is good for around 70% of the roads, for another 10-20% (side roads) you should have a crosser and the rest can only be made on your own feet.
btw, there are very nice tracks for a crosser, esp. in the West and North 
but at the end you always have to find a compromise for use in Malta and Sicily as well 
If you choose your motorcycle wisely, it can be very very cheap - e.g. for my 1000cc (which I use mainly on weekends and in Sicily) I only pay 48 Euro (insurance and tax) per year.
