Every ride, law or not. Still think it should be a personal choice though.

If you don't wear one you're stupid and if ya do yer neck'll break. J/K

Always, anywhere. Usually a full face but I'm really starting to like my 3/4 Fulmer with the flip down shield. Helps get more wind on my face in nice weather.

Only if it is really cold or raining. If they ever design one that is comfortable I might wear it; maybe not.

No helmet law in Utah for those over 18. But there was one guy last night who might have survived a headon collision with a trailer that came loose from an oncoming pickup had he been wearing one. Y'just never know what is ahead down the road. He died.

Feel naked without the helmet. I do support the right to decide for yourself though.

Fewer folks around that don't like to wear a helmet. They sometimes check out of this life a bit sooner than expected.

I've bought several helmets. None of which was comfortable, fit correctly, or that didn't give me a headache 5 minutes into the ride. So I haven't worn them...BUT! I just found one that is very comfortable, and since we are headed for Mexico next month, I'm going to wear it!! I live in a no helmet state.

What is the brand of this comfortable helmet? I have not found one yet but a HD half helmet that I have comes fairly close.
