None in Maine,it took a fight to get it that way!!!

 

Yeah.... I know I could have just googled it, but I was looking to get personal feedback more than anything. Even though we don't have a helmet law here in Maine, I think that wearing a helmet is a smart idea...... It is rare to see someone on a Harley wearing a helmet around here though, it's usually the kids on the rice rockets.

 

You have to wear one in Tennessee.......

 

Missouri does,Arkansas does not for adults,I sport a Bell half for fair weather,I also have a full face for crappy weather both are DOT.

 

Rule of thumb is warm weather states require them.

 

You have to wear one in Mississippi...I normally wear a 1/2 helmet but have a 3/4 with a face shield and a full for real cold weather riding.

 

To put it in a nutshell;



Of the fifty states, only 4 are 100% helmet law free! :

Colorado, Illinois, Iowa and New Hampshire

Of the other 46 states, 20 have full helmet laws for all motorcycle riders:

Alabama, California, Georgia, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Oregon, Tennessee, Vermont, Virginia, Washington and West Virginia.

19 States have helmet laws that exempt adult riders, riders over the age of majority -- 18 years old and over. Those states are:

Alaska, Arizona, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Idaho, Indiana, Kansas, Maine, Minnesota, Montana, New Mexico, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Utah, Wisconsin and Wyoming.

There are 7 states that discriminate against adult bikers between the ages of 18 and 20:

Arkansas, Florida, Kentucky, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, and Texas.

 

New Jersey requires a helmet only when your riding.,,Beside that we're helmet free,,,
