Good question MnFreisen!
I think the medical profession likes to do that "if you didn't have a helmet on, you'de be dead!" thing. Kinda like, "if it was one centimeter to the left, you'de be dead!" or "If you were doing 36 mph instead of 35, you'de be dead!" They tend to be sensationalists in matters that involve non politically correct issues like Guns, ATV's, et al.

Tree's that is. Not atv's of course!!!
Glad to here ur ok. I've gotten smacked around by a tree or two myself. No goggles and a branch found its way under my helmet visor while I was climbing a hill. Not as bad as yours, but thought I was going to be blind for a bit. The body heals suprisingly well, its an amazing machine. As all my posts say "Press On"

Yeah they are 18 paddle Paddle Brats. We had them on the 250r, but sold that and I decided to put them on the Pred. They hook up really well, but they take quite a bit of power to spin. They just take some getting used to, especially on the drag strip, but once you figure them out they work for the advantage.
