i wore a full face one since i got my first moped. a got a Brain Lid for a few months but i got stopped by the cops one to many times and almost lost my license. Turns out my brain lid wasn't DOT so i went back to my crappy full face helmet

A few Days ago i ordered a JPhelmet. Any one know any thing about these? i kinda jumped into buying one with out knowing anything about it.

I have told my gf to wear her helmet whenever she rides the scoot. I realize that its dangerous not necessarily because of her being a poor driver or making some kind of mistake but because of other people being idiots on the road. I know all to well.... thinking back to all the times I've been cut off by soccer moms.

I wear my lid whenever I'm on the Z. They are dead sexy even on short trips.

Both run mirror shields in the day and clear/amber at night.

Well, I have 6 laying around the house (3 are mine) so it would be pretty silly if I didn't wear one.

I like that Carbon Fiber HJC CRXDrew has......they are sweet.

I have the balls to wear one as I like my brains, and without brains what the f*** would i do with my big balls?
I am not a mechanic, nor do I play one on TV. Actually my advice is probably worth slightly less than what you pay to view it.

it's law here, so we don't have a choice. Probably a good thing, or else I likely wouldn't wear one. But, after a skirmish with a motorist today it occurred to me that if you are wearing one and the need arises to kick the sh1t out of some inconsiderate * car, they will have a hard time hurting you in the ensuing brawl. If my kickstand wasn't tied up with an old lawnmower pullstart cord, I would have gone and got right on that sonofawhore's face this morning and taught hime to be more carefull when driving his car around scooters.

The last few days people have been yelling at me for not wearing a helmet among other things which I could understand and then I was talking to my cousin who said he was pulling into his driveway when some guy started yelling at him for not wearing a helmet then that guy kept on going by my cousin's house repeatedly. why should they care..I mean if I don't want to wear my brain bucket even though I know its so easy to mess up my life with a hit the head let me be, ya know.
