That’s why even though I ride a cruiser I wear a full face helmet. I am glad there are more casual looking full face helmets instead of only sport bike looking ones. No more excuse of “it ruins the style” or whatever.
I’ve got I’ve that looks a bit like this. ATGATT means a full-face helmet. That’s why I have a face, on account of using it for an unconventional braking technique after a high-side caused by getting sideswiped by an SUV.
“unconventional braking technique”, lol, I think we’ve all used that on occasion.
And we all have brown pants because of it.
Tried to cuddle with your new cat?
And miss out on some cool brain matter scars?
A guy without scars is a guy without stories
In my experiences, the helmet is the least needed piece of gear. By that I mean, definitely also wear armoured jacket, pants, gloves, and boots. With all that and a helmet, you’ll only need to worry about breaking bones, which is nothing in comparison to the other outcomes. Neglect the other gear and you’ll wish you didn’t wear a helmet.
Edit: Hm, apparently a lot of.Lemmingtons need to wear helmets off the bike too, or make it past the first line of a comment before reacting, or there’s a lot of squids here.
If you skip the helmet the only thing your gear is doing is leaving an intact corpse
Conversely, neglect the helmet and there’s a good chance that you will become a significant financial burden on your family due to a TBI.
Well that all depends on how fast the sedan that hit you was going as you minded your own business going through the green light. Either way, “Huh?” was probably the last word ever spoken.
