weve all done it .why is it that we ignore a helmet sometimes.seems to me shit only happens when you dont wear one.

OG1000 · 02-16-2003, 05:02 PM

psyco650 · 02-16-2003, 06:04 PM

ya i was thinking that tht should have been a choice

wheeliesteve · 02-16-2003, 06:53 PM

talk about lucky. i was stuntin' w/o one and no jacket. my girl got a bad feelin' and told me to put one on. reluctuntly i put my helmet and jacket on and not two passes later my footpeg broke while doin' a nac nac and i hit the pavement hard at about 60mph. both my jacket and my helmet hit the pavement. needless to say i wear my helmet no matter what now.

I know out in the east end of Long Island were the contests are held they have a very small area called the pit were rider practice and if a rider was to wear a helmet it can restrict his sight thats 1 reason any more , what do you all think

Wheelie Ripper · 02-16-2003, 09:14 PM

I think it looks pretty badass sometimes, and if you get use to not wearing one, it's annoying to wear one. If i do wear one its just a small german style helmet

Nate-VMC · 02-16-2003, 09:17 PM

some times its just too fucken hot

TEDDY.B · 02-16-2003, 10:32 PM

i hate driving on the highway without one. my eyes get too watery. i'd say if your helmet is annoying you need to get one that fits better. although i hear ya on the heat issue

smb123 · 02-16-2003, 11:37 PM

Full leathers, baby.

smb123 · 02-16-2003, 11:39 PM

Heh, you guys complain about heat and you don't even have to deal with FL weather!

I just feel naked without all my gear on. I don't always wear my full leathers.. but I pretty much always wear my riding boots. I always have a good jacket, gloves, and helmet on, though.

Mayer-Z · 02-16-2003, 11:54 PM

The best stunters in the world still crash once in a while.
I crashed a stunt wars and didn't have my full leathers on and
i rashed my knees and the top of my foot.
Leathers and a helmet are a must.

skillz · 02-17-2003, 08:57 AM

I often find myself stunting without a helmet, no intelligent reasoning can justify this , but I cant understand why people stunt without gloves or boots, I get so nervous without my gloves on i would rather sit and watch.

FiNNiSH StuNNa · 02-17-2003, 09:26 AM

I always wear a helmet, i'd feel naked wihtout it

Pat-trick · 02-17-2003, 12:28 PM

i am bringing back the tirtle shell.

~Carms~ · 02-17-2003, 12:35 PM

I see a lot of people here in Tampa not wearing helmets!! Especially during rush hour traffic down Dale Mabry witch has the nickname DEATHMABRY.. I dunno, just when you think you'll be alright without one that first time You're not!! You cant tell a person that they have to wear one if they are riding with you, but I dont ride with that person unless they do wear one.. Also if they ask me , " You think i'll be alright not wearing one"? My answer NO.. Because one day if I say I dont care thats the day tragety (sp) will strike.. But I guess its your choice in playing Rush and Roulette... Jsut my opinion..

Eric SSB · 02-17-2003, 02:22 PM

Two dollar helmet for a two dollar head. You figure it out.

BEOBEUR · 02-17-2003, 02:49 PM

I THINK HELMETS SUCK!!! THERE GOOD IF YOUR JUST LEARNING AND STUFF OR IF YOU FEEL IFFY ABOUT A TRICK BUT WHEN YOUR CONSTANTLY DOING TWELVES IT STARTS KILLING YOUR NECK FROM BEING BACK SO FAR. IF YOUR DOING 125 MPH WHEELIES YOU SHOULD WEAR ONE BUT IF YOUR JUST PLAYING AROUND ON SOME SIDE STREET ..FUK IT.. I THINK A CONDOM IS MORE PROTECTION THEN A HELMET..HA HA

-Rodger- · 02-17-2003, 03:14 PM

ignorance at it's finest.

i crashed the other day doing a 11mph headlight grab and hit my HARD, serious hard. like i would've been in the hospital hard.

we all know that even the best riders make mistakes. uafhhdsSTUNTWARS.

you know what else kills me is those East coast guys and those goofy ass wanna gangsta lids. not only do they look stupid, but they look stupid. and i dont think there gonna protect yo cranium well at all.

Pat's helmet is questionable due to the 3/4 style. what about that pretty grill of yours?

NO EXCUSES

z WEAR YO :helmet

NynFyv4 · 02-17-2003, 03:24 PM
