Full face, full time?

I would laugh out loud and shake my head. Not sorry.
We have to assume the reason is he doesn't want it stolen?? When I ride to work, I do take my helmet inside with me. In all fairness, I rarely park "in public places" such as on the streets, near stores or in parking garages. If so yeah I would invest in a heavy duty cable with loops for a padlock and secure it to the bike. I trust no one. About the only time I don't worry is when we're out with our friends at rallies or biker bars. But I wouldn't walk around with it on. You might as well be wearing that silly "man-purse" things Harley is trying to push as a free gift.

I think the only times I’ll ever appreciate any helmet is in a hard rain, or if / when my head goes boing. Then I’ll love my helmet. Just don’t leave me a veggie. Make it or end it.. don’t let me be half way.

There is a difference.

Anyway. The very few times I have not taken it off have been for quick purchases at gas stations. I'm not about to take off a helmet, hang it, go in for 30 seconds, then come back and put it on.

I bring it on myself… I know. But I’ll still say it again even though last time I was attacked…
‘I think it’s ridiculous to have a full face helmet on with bike parked and music blaring loud so you can hear it with your helmet on. Gas stations or even in front of stores.
Is it someone’s “Right” to turn THEIR music up to 11 while wearing a helmet forcing everyone else to listen the THEIR music.. yes.
Is it considerate, kind or even polite NO.
Be a genius and learn how to either use earplugs w/helmet or be considerate enough to turn it down at a light or with bike parked. ESPECIALLY WITH COP KILLER “N” word this and “F” word that. I mentioned I’d ask polite or turn it off for them and got crucified for saying… even got called a bully.. if I stop posting for a while you’ll know why. Cause I will ask as polite as possible, but got zero fear of after asking turning it off for them watch me.
I got rights too and they don’t include having to listen to that crap.
