I will probably always wear a helmet and a leather jacket when I ride. I don't even feel comfortable with riding my dads shadow for a block without a helmet.

I had an accident with my bike. I was going through the canyons and hit some gravel taking a left curve and the bike slid out from below me and I went sliding into the bushes/gravel. Doing about 40mph I think
I had full leathers and helmet. Probably saved me from some serious injuries. Did not have any road rash. I dislocated my shoulder and that was about it.

Good thing you like to wear helmets. Tell them that youll buy the most secured motorcycle helmets in the country just to let them have you that bike. and youll get their approval instantly.

I'm struggling with the same issue on the parent end, but thankfully my son only wants a Honda cruiser, not a sport bike. It was good to read this thread and get my son's perspective. Thanks all.
