I do...not a good question to ask why someone wears one because it will start an argument

I wear mine all the time I rolled my quad over backwards in the rocks and the handle bars hit the front of my helmet and slamed my head into the rocks! Lots of big deep scratches in it could have been my head. That was all it took too keep me always wearing one.

Always!! Just like my seatbelts! The laws of Physics can be pretty brutal when applied to the human body and a moving vehicle and I see no good reason to expose one self to the wrath.

I do, and finally got my wife to wear one. Had to buy one that matched her quad, then had to buy a jersey and pants to match it too. Just a good investment, besides, I get to buy new gear too![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Sometimes I do, I should wear it all the time....I have two helmets.....both of them is realy sharp. I have been wearing my full face alot, because it's still cold here. We go to alot of places where you have to wear one....But when i'm just putting around here I don't. Everyone should always wear one, and that goes for me too.

We do! My son wore his faithfully except the time he strapped it to his rear rack for a 10 min. ride. He broke his jaw in ten seperate places, plus other injuries. ( doctor said it was the worst jaw injury he had ever seen, with the exception of a gunshot wound). Ten days in hospital, trach in throat, feeding tube in stomache for eight weeks. Not meant to be a sermon, I'm probably more guilty than most. " When you least expect it" Expect It"
