I always wear my helmet. I've had too many close calls to even consider riding without it. And I've got the helmet gashes to prove it![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Seen too many peoples (Including me)crashing those machines and will not take a chance.

Will remember all my life how lucky I got 8 years ago when flip my first ATV, had a helmet but my cousin in the back wasn't wearing one and when we flip I decided to take the crash and told him to jump on the side, (probably saving his life) but my spine took a serious hit and smashed a couple vertebra. Doctor old me that without a helmet I would had been either death or vegetable. After 6 weeks of realibitation was walking again and now 100% recover.

I'd say yes and will preach to my friend on family. I tought my father was crazzy then...[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]

Now I understand...[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

I always wear it, I crash too much not too. I preach but I make sure EVERYONE knows I'm joking. If they don't want to wear a helmet it's their head they're putting up for grabs not mine.

I've posted already but i'll yack again.

I wouldn't dream of not wearing a helmit anymore.

Today i was at a huge gravel pit all day and at least 2 times I ate the handle bars.
Once because there was a little drop off i wasn't ready for and my bumper stuck and i went into the bars
and one time my hands just slipped because i was really tired.

If I didn't have a helmit both these times I would have knocked my front teeth out.

Wear a Helmit! it's crazy not to.
