I have never tried to tell anyone one way or the other what they should or should not wear. I ride with guys who wear helmets and rarely rib them.(imagine me passing up that opportunity
)Most of the guys I ride with don't wear them also their choice. So it would be very easy to tease a guy about it but I don't.
It is amazing how safe I feel on my SM, you want to talk an experience try and old chopper like my TR6C hardtail with a springer going down the highway at 80 or 90 MPH with no helmet and jeans and a T shirt , front end hopping off the road as you go for no reason other than it's that long springer flexing! Now that's fun!
