You're nuts!! LOL
My wife and I had a minor mishap 25+ yrs ago.. our faces would have melted if we didn't have on full face helmets.

The scrubbing/cleaning the skin (road burns) at the ER cuts through Demerol like hot knife on butter.

Without getting into the the politics of helmet laws, riding without a brain bucket is one of the most foolish things a person can do.

Not exactly. Riding a motorcycle is a calculated risk for sure. But no helmet is just plain dumb, imho.

I agree with the helmet comment, in PA a helmet is optional but a seat belt in a car is mandatory, go figure.

It's all about luck and time as well. If its your time to go you can't avoid it. My 2 bikers friend died on the race track even though they wore full suit and the best helmet. That's life.

Back then in Asia we rode motorcycle without helmet for 10 years straight and nothing happened. Maybe that's why wearing helmet is too much sometimes. , Too hot. LOL.

That's how it is in Rhode Island too. The passenger has to wear one though. New Hampshire and Maine do not.

when we take up riding two hypothetical buckets are graciously bestowed upon us.

one being filled with luck and the other void but allotted for experience, as riders we can only hope our expeirience buckets fill up before the luck buckets go bare.

those riding without a helmet use a up hand over fist rations of luck routinely.

that being said, freedom is divine and to each their own.

killer Agusta.

I forgot, helmet in PA in optional but eye protection is mandatory...
So a guy wearing a helmet but riding with his visor up is committing an offense, I've seen guys cited for this,
but a guy not wearing a helmet but wearing sunglasss is okay...

As the saying goes, 'dont push your luck'. If something did happen back then, you wont be riding this awesome bike today! LOL

Sweat is a lot less painful to wash off than blood.
