planeflyer21 Posted February 27, 2015 Author Report Posted February 27, 2015 I used to wear a helmet zero percent of the time. No law to wear one here and I reasoned that dead or vegetableized was better than being a quadriplegic from a neck injury, due to getting the helmet wrenched off after an accident. Now that I have family to wipe my butt and spoon feed me, helmet all the way baby!
98Z5V Posted February 28, 2015 Report Posted February 28, 2015 (edited) I wear mine 99.9% of the time I'm with him. Almost always. Sometimes not, though. EDIT - lemme quantify that a little... DIRT - 100% of the time, without fail, never without the lid. Some pretty serious dirt wrecks in the past, too. STREET - almost all the time. Edited February 28, 2015 by 98Z5V
392heminut Posted March 1, 2015 Report Posted March 1, 2015 99.9% of the time here too! Used to be I only wore a helmet when I had my kid on the back, he was under 18 and I didn't want to set a double standard with him. That's the only reason I had a helmet on when I had my bad crash and that helmet had scrapes all over the right side. Now I wear one pretty much all the time I'm riding. I DON'T do full face though, can't stand them. Mine are 3/4 helmets.
planeflyer21 Posted March 2, 2015 Author Report Posted March 2, 2015 Mine are 3/4 helmets. Once a cop...
Malig8r Posted March 4, 2015 Report Posted March 4, 2015 I always wear a helmet. Dirt...street...always. The one time I didn't...long story short I ended up with my femur split in two and lucky I had no head injury! Helmets always now.
Zebra644 Posted March 4, 2015 Report Posted March 4, 2015 I'm sorry buddy but I'm a huge advocate for helmets, but don't get me mixed up with those helmet law pushers......it's your choice Lost a few due to no helmet had a few saved due to wearing them also I'm with Shepp On this one fellas, I wear my 1/2 helmet all the time on on Street Glide. I've seen too many cases were people would have lived if they were wearing one and / or were intoxicated.
