12. Wear the gear that is required by law in the state you live in. If you choose to not wear the gear cause you can and are willing to take the risks that are incurred based on the comfort you gain...more powere to you. Be free if you choose.
13. Keep a living will and last testament available to your family. The risks of motorcycling can not be overstated. If you ride to the best of your ability you can still find yourself DOA just be being in the wrong place at the wrong time. The risks are greater than those of our cager compatriots. Tell your family you love them each morning cause you never know when this day of riding might be your last.
