If you all want some interesting reading, and read some idiotic thinking, go to the UTILITY ATV'S thread, and look for the DO YOU WEAR A HELMET forum. Read through it, some good responses, but also some idiotic ones.... Just because I know you all like to read my books [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img], hear is my response. Maybe not the best, but it's late.
=======================================
Maybe we are pressing our luck, thoughts
What an understatement that is. I can agree that as long as it is not a law, everybody has their own right to wear or not wear a helmet. Goes with all the other rights we have. But I don't understand why anybody would not wear one. Even an open face helmet is better than nothing. Doesn't protect your face, but good lucks are way over rated [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]. It doesn't take a lot of speed and crazy riding to fall over and hit your nugget. If it didn't, people wouldn't have to wear bicycle helmets. I don't understand why somebody would want to be selfish enough to say they don't want to wear one because it takes away from the ride. Slap me for saying this, but: Wearing a condom takes away from good s@#, but guys wear them because they don't want a disease or a baby!!! Lot's of opinions on this one, but what's worse: knocking your head on a rock or something and getting killed or being a vegetable the rest of your life: or getting some little disease or having a kid??????? Ask your family and friends their thought.
It's because of ignorance and the thought that "it won't happen to me", that people get killed and/or get severe head trauma because they don't wear a helmet. I'll bet most of those that don't wear a helmet, wear a seatbelt when they are in a car. That isn't the most comfortable thing to wear either. If there were no risks, or the risk vs benefit was even low enough, I wouldn't want to wear a helmet either. But it's NOT, the risk is HIGH. Some will throw out the old, "you could get hit crossing the street" or something idiotic analogy that anything can happen any time. My answer is, yep you are right. But if there is a good tool or some good way to help prevent an accident or bodily injury, WHY NOT USE IT ????????????????????????????????????????
Whewwwwwwwwwwww

Nobody does any hot ******* or speeding around just getting from A to B. I have to admit none of us wear a helmet. I am seraiously considering one to help fight off the cold wind and any mishaps.

GEEZZZ,
there is another on of these same dumb questions on the HONDA Forum. Bing even replied on that one, go get 'em buddy. Some of the replies from guys that don't wear helmets are funnier than hell. I am glad to see all the positive replies on there though.............
