F'n-A I do. Every time. Even for a trip around the block. And even though you didn't ask I'll tell ya why anyway. Helmet will do little except maybe preserve your face for the funeral in a crash at 100mph and up. But at 30mph, when that dumbass cager pops you, a helmet is literally the difference between life and death. I don't, however, think it should be a law. Let Darwin's theories thin the herd (i.e. Helmet's are too hot, I can't see as well, I can't hear as well, it musses my hair, wah wah wah, etc.)

Oh, mine is an HJC also.

Hells yeah I wear a helmet. With all these mental midgets in cages around here, you'd be dumb not to. Although, When I go down to Miami, I think maybe 2 out of 10 riders wear helmets. Bunch retards

I'll always wear a helmet 24/7 when i'm on the bike. It doesn't matter if i'm just going around the block, cruising at the beach, or going for a nice long ride. I'll always have my helmet on. Mine is a HJC as well.

I always wear mine as well, not only because it is law but have you ever ridden without one? I grew up in Tx (no helmet law) and on vacation there earlier this year, I figured I would ride to the store lidless just to see what the fuss was all about. It was less than 2 miles away. When I pulled out onto the highway and got up to a decent speed (limit is 70 all over the state on any road out there) I realized how freakin stupid it was to even think about. I made it to the store like a grandma, grabbed soem Copenhagen and headed back. I have never felt so naked in my life. Some days on a short commute I will not wear my A* stunt if it is stupidly hot and while it does make a difference mentally on even thinking about pushing it in a corner, the lack of a helmet just shut me down completely. I don't care where I live and how hot it is, there is no way I will ride without.

I wear a Shoei RF 900 Phantom.
