    That makes me wonder how those old motorcycle caps stayed on rider's heads when they got up to highway speeds. I see pictures of riders on their panheads with these caps on. How did they stay on?

    I see folks with all kinds of masks on to keep the cold off their face in the winter
    I put my modular FF helmet on and when I start riding if its too cold I pull the clear face shield down .
    Sme thing when it rains
    It's another tool to use to help you.
    Everybody I got into motorcycles over 49 yrs
    I've stressed the importance of wearing a helmet for protection
    Everybody still wears one
    They have become like me
    They feel Naked without a helmet
    And I'm clostrafobic,
    You need to learn a lot about helmets before you git one
    You don't want one too loose, and you want to make sure it has a lot of air flow
    If you don't wear it you can't break it in or git used to it

    A helmet is a choice for you, if you want to protect yer Mullet head
    But you got o be Smart enough to wear one.
