I think I saw you in "Wild Hogs". The bird hit you in the chest first, right?

I wear an extended half, but I would probably get looked at more if I had a full face covering my face

Choice ur *** ur way I prefer not to wear a helmet but I'm old and don't want to spend months recovering. My angel is in charge my life is in god's hands!! lol
+1 us old geezers don't need no stinking helmets, and if it's my time to go, so be it. Your choice but i like the wind and full sound of the exhaust. Out of state, smallest beanie I could find. Cheapest $10 pair of swap meet wrap around sunglasses with foam insets work the best tried them expensive ones and most don't fit near as well.

Default RE: Helmet?

I was not a helmet rider at first love the feeling...then my daughters best friend inlaw just had her hair done and did not want helmet hair so she was on&nbsp\\;a ride with a group...they went over the hill and she never came over her husband went back for her she&nbsp\\;was down... 5&nbsp\\;months in the hospital brain dead they pulled the plug. My baby made me promise to wear helmet.&nbsp\\;I do also wear riding fingerless gloves..feel good &amp\\;look sexy. I am looking for ivory colored chaps to match my jacket and have had no luck.
If anyone knows where I can pick up ivory colored chaps..I would greatly appreciate it.
&nbsp\\;
PS At least you have a Harley I'm still in training for mine.
&nbsp\\; My&nbsp\\;hope to get a&nbsp\\;Dyna Street Bob 06 is coming this year&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;
