I've never been one to wear a Helmet. I just enjoy the ride and the fresh air. I could tell you a story about once I had a helmet on going down the Freeway and it almost cost me, but think Bumble Bee and I'm sure you'll figure it out.
Lost a good friend in an accident. His Helmet didn't save him. It's not the 1st friend I've lost to a motorcycle crash. It's not so much what we as riders do but what those just ahead of us do/don't do that causes most of the problems.
Reading someone's mind has saved my Arse more than once.

This is so true...Being able to see what others are going toBEFORE they do it and being able tocorrectly respond area MUST.
This is also why we should always ride 100% completely sober...So our reaction times aren't compromised...
My Fiance' just boughta Sportster this weekend. Ohio state law requires permitted ridersto wear a helmet until they get their endorsement...With that being said...Ibought her a new helmet tonight and I (who hasn't worn a helmet in all my years of riding) too am buying myself a helmet...This way she doesn't look too much different than me when she's riding next to me and well, the more I think about it the more I'd like to possibly save my own life for our future together and of coursefor my children andgrandchildrens sake...
