The guy is trying to keep you from killing yourself and making all the rest of us look bad in the process. How about chilling the hell out and say "I don't believe In wearing a helmet" and leaving it at that?

why are you being so defensive about it? he's trying to protect --> YOU <-- from killing yourself. you obviously haven't seen to many wrecks where people haven't worn helmets.

if you're going to be riding a trike AND JUMPING, you need to wear a helmet. it's bad enough of that people discourage trikes because of the "dangerous level", but you're jumping one without a helmet? yeah... let's make people discourage them EVEN MORE when you do end up getting hurt because you decided to be stupid over a real simple decision. seriously, use your brain. if you haven't already lost it from wrecking without a helmet, dummy.

its called freedom, thanks for protecting me from myself i really appreciate that.

like i said, do you wear full metal body armor? if you dont you're stupid and probably havent seen many wrecks where people get road rash.

hey im only protecting you from yourself. you should thank me, oh... your not thanking me? too bad i'll lobby some fat ass in washington to make it a law.

i doubt maybe to any people have seen someone get road rash from a car wreck :rolleyes:
why do you keep bringing the whole freedom thing up into this? grow up, the whole freedom concept is over-rated and out of line anymore besides the fact that it has nothing to do with what we're talking about. we're just saying it'd be better if you wore a helmet for future reference if you ever mess up on that jump and the bike somehow ends up on top of your face. you know? it CAN happen.

but i guess there's something wrong with GOOD ADVICE, right?:rolleyes:

the soviet union offically ended in 1991. not really that long ago.

no one really cares what you opinion about helmets are and when they should worn, i hope you put yours on whenever you sit on your trike or move it around.

i was referring the period of time when/where people would constantly use the term "commy *Edited**Edited**Edited**Edited**Edited**Edited**E dited*"

and i really think you're missing the point. it's not an opinion rather than a fact that helmets are a safety necessity. ever read the warning labels on your 200x? i personally hope that thing lands on your head just to teach you a lesson. there's also a pretty big difference between not wearing a helmet when just sitting on your trike/moving it and JUMPING IT.

Actual they realized that trying to explain how to use a helmet was so difficult, that trying to explain to hit the jump ina lower gear to get more snap on launch to get more air would be impossible.

[Dammit!]

This is a funny thread. :lol:

I'm going to throw my two cents in on the helmet issue just on the outside chance it hits home with somebody reading this.

When I first started riding as a kid, I always wore a helmet. Then at about 16 or so I didn't think it was important anymore and stopped wearing them for a while (there's vids.. do a search, lol). Then I had a very minor accident that taught me a hard lesson and I have been wearing them again ever since.

It was raining. I was riding my R (no helmet). I wasn't out going fast or anything. Just cruising in the rain and mud with a friend of mine back in Ohio. I was going around a corner in second gear, low throttle. Been around that corner a hundred times. Everything was fine and then the next thing I know I open my eyes and everything is sideways. Apparently my rear wheel struck a tree root that the rain had uncovered and it flipped me over so fast that I could not react. My left hand still had a firm grip on the handlebars despite being buried a few inches into the sand. I hit my head so hard it knocked me out for a second and everything sounded funny for about a minute after my friend helped me up. It was just a stupid low speed wipeout but it gave me a concussion. Not a major injury but then I thought... that was just wet sand. If that had been a rock, pavement, hard packed dirt, a tree root or just about anything else, that stupid little low speed wipeout could have killed me. It would be damn embarassing to die in second gear so now I wear helmets again. :lol:

Accidents happen when you're not expecting them. That's why they're called accidents. If you don't think anything could have happened to you on that little jump, think again. The 200x axle has been known to snap right where the threads are. You're a big guy. Do you seriously think jumping 1 foot in the air in fourth gear and having half the rear axle snap off on the landing doesn't carry the potential for a rollover? Hell something as simple as a thrown chain could cause you to lose control. It's usually the stupid stuff that gets you. In addition to protecting your melon, helmets also block out wind noise so you can actually hear better with them on than without them. Goggles keep you from getting a bug in the eye at high speed. The list goes on.

Here's the big kicker though. Do you have any family that depends on you? Do you think it would be fair for a child to grow up without a father because that person didn't feel like putting a helmet on that day? Or how about a parent losing a son? Brother? Friends? Think about it. Wearing a helmet isn't necassarily about your freedom to choose. It's about your responsibility to those that care about or depend on you.

:welcome:

[ATC-Eric]

This thread is absolutely hillarious.

My brother did a wheelie on my new Z tonight on the tarmac. It hit the power band in the air and did a back flip with him on it.

He would have been messed up REAL bad without a helmet. Instead he has a little road rash.

Talking from a family stand point, It would kill me to see my brother hurt bad, or die because of no helmet, or anything else that could happen on a bike. Thats why I starting riding a little more responsiblly, because I dont want to put my brother through some crap like having to pull my dead body out of the woods. You can not care all you want, but its selfesh to leave somebody else to clean up after your stupid move.

yeah its a mini14, it shares the same action design as the m14, but obviously a different caliber and physically smaller.

i wanted to buy a m14 but but i settled for a mini14 rancher ($550!!) but the m14 was $1,300+ :naughty:
