chadrcr!!! I am very upset with you if you have been riding for a while and "sometimes" wear a helmet. You should put on a helmet every single time you get on your bike and intend to go on the street. I don't want to sound naggy or anything but let me tell you a short story. I had a close friend to me die a year ago in a motorcycle crash. We were only back from our first deployment for 9 days when it happened. He was only going 30 mph and going around a turn and some jackass not paying attention pulled out in front of him so he swerved, scraped the curve, and went flying off his bike hitting a tree head first. the tree was only about 3 inches in diameter. He was NOT wearing a helmet. If he was, I would be suprised if he had any more than a headache for a couple days. Survived 15 months in hell only to die 9 days later because he didn't take the 4 seconds to strap on his helmet. RIP Johnny.
