Helmets...
-
I see a lot of Fargo riders that dont wear helmets. The point of "I dont wear a helmet because I want all the chicks to see my pretty face and to know that I AM a badass!!!" was nailed right on. When I first started riding like 5 years ago, I NEVER wore a helmet. That lasted till my first accident when I decided to go get my helmet only about an hour before I plastered myself on the pavement that night...never been on a bike without one since then. Riding with no helmet is plain RETARDED...end of story!

The main reason to care is when they crash and cause the doctors spend hours piecing the guy's skull back together, and running up a huge bill which then affects our insurance rates. Or if you know the guy personally, then I guyss it's ok to care too.

I agree, the main reason is that the rest of us pay through the ass for the cleaning of teeth, oakleys, and hair product out of the back of somebodys ford escort when some douchebag decides to purchase an R6 as his first bike and 'whoa this is alot faster than I thou..smack. You pay both in insurance premiums and in taxes.
Another reason is that people already think sportbike riders are douchebags (see: stoppies on 13th in traffic, wheelies on the overpass :icon_thumright: ) and squiding around without any gear on just adds to that perception, and I'd rather not be lumped in with that.
Girls don't care what kind of bike you ride or how fast it is, all they see is shiney, bright colors, and loud noises. So if you put a helmet on, theres even more bright and shiney to giggle about! Anyway, if the first thing a girl likes about you is your bike, I'd say she fits firmly into the brainless twat catagory. Isn't tuning cars and bikes more about impressing your boyfriends anyway? Oh wait, im suuuuure girls care about your MaD TyTe Rimz from JAPAN YO!
