ABSOLUTELY NOT......

There is nothing like the feeling of my
 
long hair blowin' in the wind!!!!!....

I was in an accident 8 yrs ago and I had a helmet on in NY and it was scraped after I got to see it so I'm sure it made a difference but I choose Not to wear one if I don't have to.....I live in SC now so no problems here except in my town of Myrtle Beach but there are ways around the town!

Wear one or don't. The choice is not as important as the right to choose.

Some times I wear it some times I don't its my choice in SC.

I wear one at different times of the day (early morning when dark) and different times of the year (rutting season), but that is my choice and it is important to have the right to choose.

I would rather wear one than lose your head

I wear a helmet because it is required here in Michigan. I would still wear a helmet if it wasn't the law...especially on the highway at high speeds. I have ridden in Ohio, on leisurely trips on back roads at lower speeds, without a helmet...but I would CHOOSE to wear one most of the time. No use ending the dance before it's over! BUT.....I do believe it should be a CHOICE for adults....along with seatbelt usage and life jacket usage! For kids it's different...they should definately be protected no matter what!

another 2 bike crashes with us in aberdeen ,one guy has died others in hospital ,probably would be dead if he never had on his helmet .glad we dont have the choice ,we have to wear one its the law ,thank god.

Choice is good! If there's one thing I don't want is people or government telling me what to do! I'm in Florida and there is no helmet law here. Do I wear a helmet? Absolutely! I wouldn't hit the road without it! Actually a helmet, gloves and boots everytime! That's the minimal I'll ride with. But seriously, I really don't care what the other guy does. It's his/her choice!

BTW.......as much as I like loud pipes......loud pipes don't save lives, helmets do!

aye ,loud pipe's do help ,the cops in scotland dont like them ,but car drivers hear u b4 they see u ,so that does help ,my can's loud as **** like .i got it cut down ,just waiting for the auld plod to pull me over like .also wid na go out with out the full kit on ,but id say sports bike riders are alot diffrent from most of the style u guys ride .

I've got a "Modular" Full wrap, a 3/4, a "Halfsie and a "SkidLid"... The one that gets the most use is the 3/4. I always wear something! Even if it's just the "SkidLid"! I've been down twice over the years (ignorant and BLIND automobile operators) and believe me, thank GOD for the Helment! Yes, I live in Delaware where we don't HAVE to wear one but, I do anyway!

I wear a PINK half helmet..it matches my PINK sunglasses

I wear one 99% of the time. I agree, given a choice most people will make the right decision, most of the time. I fully support that adults should have the choice - but if they do the wrong thing they and they alone should bear the consequences of the wrong decison. I wear a welding helmet when I weld and I wear sunglasses when the sun is bright, a motorcycle helmet is reasonable safety gear for me and it is my choice and I choose to wear it (most of the time). - never want to lock down all options

I like your style... I wear a pink one too.

I live in Colorado where helmets are required only for under 18 riders.  I wear mine because I have had too many friends killed or permanently incapacitated by head injuries.  I grew up and learned to ride in Michigan where helmet use is legally mandated, so maybe part of my decision to ride with a lid is based on the fact that I had to wear one for all those years.  But here's the irony ... all those years living in Michigan I HAD to wear one but never had an accident. Now living where it is voluntary, I had an accident and would have been badly injured if not wearing my helmet. Glad I made that decision.

Texas doesn't require a helmet and I won't leave the garage without one and I see too many riders going way to fast down a 5 lane freeway, weaving in and out of cars with their helmets hanging on the side of the bike. It may be 105 degrees in the summer here, but I will always wear a helmet.

mine ,cool eh .

Hey Buffy, cool photo, was that in NC?
