A friend of mine was in a wreck wearing one of those things and is still in a coma. The docs said if he was wearing a helmet with the proper cushioning, he probably wouldn't be in the condition he's in now. He crashed on Good Friday, now they are getting ready to send him to long term care until he wakes up---jack

I’m sorry to hear about your friend.

Was he wearing the DOT approved helmet?

Hey Atrox,

Nice smile.

Looks like you share a dentist with Austin Powers!




My wife is pissed. I spend all my money on my Harley, Guns and anything else I like but I won't get my teeth fixed. I told her if she kept that thing clean this would have never happened.
ROFLMAO!
I was going to say that real bikers don't smile, to keep the bugs out of their teeth, but never mind...

You said "wearing one of those things" are you talking about a novelty helmet or the DOT approved Carbon Fiber helmet?

People around him should wear a face shield.......LOL




I have the non-DOT helmet from Advance Carbon Fiber, and it's great. According to them, the only part of the DOT test that it doesn't pass is the puncture test. There isn't as much padding as a regular DOT helmet, but it still offers better protection then nothing at all.
