I can't help but think, at some point in putting it on, the person much have wondered why the helmet straps were so F-ed up. Also, if the rider was very new and just started to ride, then he must have just got his motorcycle licence. Somewhere in the process of getting that licence every rider must show a level on riding skill. Durring that evaluation, a helmet must be worn. I just can't see any person either training a rider or giving an evaluation not teaching this person front from back. Maybe I'd ask the rider if he was trying to be a smart *** or was he just a dumb *** for putting his helmet on backwards.

Was it a full face? That would be interesting. Poor bastard couldn't even drink his coffee...

Y'lll think a backwards helmet is bad... I nearly choked on my coffee when my sister came for a visit and I offered to take her on her first ride on a harley. (She's 56.. btw)... I tossed her a bandana and she tied it around her head like a babushka....

Actually she had it right, oddly enough. Lot's of women like using a product called "The Buff" or similar that keeps their hair from tangling, etc. when wearing a helmet.
