In the winter they keep my head warm, in rain they keep the rain from stinging my face. At night they keep the big bugs from hitting me in the forehead. In my city 6 months a year they fry me and I truly hate them. I do have a Scorpion EXO-100 that I think rocks! Its just right to keep the sun off, keep the ears warm and has a flip up visor.
Other than that I may not wear one because I choose not to wear one. I think we should also argue that its not just a helmet. You should be wearing only a full faced modular Snell rated helmet. Why would you not? We should also require they all be hot pink for visibility.
Well, you would not because of freedom of choice. The rider gets to decide. 30 States in the U.S. have figured that one out.
We wouldn't need them at all if we just outlawed motorcycles. Really, a car is climate controlled, great stereo, serious comfort, haul a ton of stuff, take 5 friends with you. Why would we not just drive cars?
I am just teasing but social engineering via legislation simply sucks IMHO>
I try to aggravate one person a day. Today may be your day.
