Check some of the information on the left side on the site, including the "Helmet Hoax" section.

 

Funny story, I finally got my wife on the Sporty last night, first time. She had riden before, but it was a long time ago. She gets off the bike and looks at me and says, " I can relate to a man now". I said, "Really, how?" "Riding with a helmet must be like having sex with a condom on, because this would be a much better experience without it".

 

Can't nobody tell me shlt, Stats or no stats. The choice is yours, or should be, just hope you make the right one when the time comes.

Yep - I keep seeing that pic of your helmet ******..maybe that's why I've taken to a Shoei 900 FF whenever possible.

 

People need to evaluate information and make their own decision.

Shouldn't be that hard to do.

It's called freedom of choice, and if others don't like your decision, too bad.

 

Thanks Ray1970. Growing up my dad always teased my mom about doing that so I thoughtI would give it a try. My wife was ok with it! I guess she figures motorcycles run in my blood and I am a lost cause!

Riding without a helmet is fun, but I would much rather rely on a "skid lid" than a "skid skull".

 

I work in the motorcycle industry and our company policy is that you must wear a helmet if you ride into work or you could be fired. I live in Illinois which is a no helmet law state which is fine if you don't want to wear one.I personally have too much money invested in my head with student loans. It would be hard to pay those while I'm blowing snot bubbles out of my eye sockets while pissing my diapers because I would have felt so free those seconds leading up to the wreck. I had a guy at work who had ridden for over 40 years, 25k miles a year compare crashing without a helmet to throwing an apple down the street as hard as you can hoping nothing else hits you. I hate the law becuase people should have the choice, but I would not ride without one.
