2, 3 & 4 for me. Never when in a group, never above the speed limit and I've never been doing anything silly. Always the front tyre under breaking-back tyre doesn't seem to give me much grief when it slips, I even managed to save it when it tried to highside me when it lost grip and spun up then regripped suddenly. Never had an accident 2up, thank God, only near miss with a pillion was the pillion's fault (panicked and leant the wrong way on a roundabout, when I really had to lean the bike over to get round, as I'd sped up to avoid a car).

So if I always ride in a group like an idiot with a pint of fuel in the tank I'll be safe?
