Default Just Bought a New Helmet... Sort of

So i found this at Walmart for five bucks and i couldn't pass it up.



So its not exactly DOT approved but it helps with wind and rocks and you get the wierdest looks from people. Alot of the sport bikers where i'm from take themselves way to seriously so its nice to not be one of those guys

We usually take ourselves seriously because if we fall we actually want something that protects our brain...

It's amusing, but I certainly wouldn't ride around wearing it...

it might look cool but being serious about safety will save your head....Safety > Looks

I didn't mean in the gear department. nobody around here wears anything but a baseball cap. I meant in the we are bad asses cuz we ride crotch rockets kind of way.

I agree with the safety but to be completely honest i don't wear my helmet most of the time in town anyways, I know alot of you disagree

Funny looking AND won't protect you in a crash. How can you go wrong?
