after the crash
So coming back from a short ride to test my new lowering kit, I get hit by a car. I dont remember the crash but I do know I went head first into the pavment. My fatboy isnt totaled I think (my head coushined its fall) so now im trying to pass the time with a sever concussion. My question is those of you who have apes how does riding with a full face helmet effect you? I have never ridden with a helmet before and now it seems I have to. Thanks for reading my ramblings

While not a big fan of apes or helmets, a lot of guys I know in the dominate MC in my area do ride with both and haven't had anything negative to report.

I've never worn a FF helmet because they seem like they'd be hot and like sticking my head in a box, with a slit cut in it. Give me my 3-4 and face shield.
Apes...not a fan there either.
But, I'm glad you're okay, even if you hit your head. Did they stop and who were they texting to? Get a lawyer!!!

Perhaps a rider's safety course would be wise because clearly, something isn't right.
Heheheh, there's a really good joke in there, but I'm gonna take the high road and not make it.

I think apes look ridiculous on most bikes, but what do I know, I have a rubber chicken strapped to the back of my bike.
