On the other hand, helmets that are strong enough to reduce the severity of a head injury are also the ones more likely to contribute to a crash, as they tend to interfere with seeing and hearing what it going on around you. There’s also risk compensation to consider - riders wearing helmets tend to take more risks than riders who don’t.

Helmets work if you plan on crashing at very low speeds and hit your head.

If you get hit by a vehicle such as a car or anything larger - odds are the body trauma is going to be so severe the helmet is a moot point.

Simple fact - motorcycles are dangerous as fuck in comparison to other vehicles. The ONLY way to make one really safer - is to leave it in the garage.

Anyone who argues that there is a " safer way to ride" hasn' t been hit by a pickup truck......

I literally said I would never in a million years ride with you. Because I like living. And I'm already at home Hehe

Oh and again good job refuting all those experts and statistics that prove you wrong Hehe

That’s more or less why I gave up riding. The three crashes I was involved in over 20+ years didn’t do it, it was seeing my mates get killed or injured for life.

One of the hardest things I ever did was selling my Electra Glide.

I had three majors too over 35 years of riding. Hit by a Volvo wagon - centerpunching a whitetail deer and hit by a Chevy 3/4 ton.... Last one cost me 18 months in a wheelchair. Rode for 10 years after the last one and decided I heal too slow now to be able to take another hit. Put on a shitload of miles over the years - even riding in the winter on snow covered roads. Had a bunch of fun.

I would never recommend anyone to ride.

I have seen many die - and it' s rarely their fault.
