You dont like it,,you have a problem with it,,,,,,"two tears and a bucket F$%^ it! Yeah I ride the dunes in the daytime on hot summer days, hat turned backwards, and have all the fun in the world. At night,,,i put my helmet on! So the bottom line is,,I dont fly off doubles, or triples,,,and I dont do anyother tricks,,,but just ride within my limits,,,stay on the nastiest tree shots i can find and I dont say a F$%^*&@ word to anybody else who rides up beside me without a helmet.

here are my thoughts.............
#1 we here at exriders like to promote SAFE riding........

#2 your technique of trying to cover up the F word doesn't impress me

#3 When you DO crash with no helmet & bust your brains all over the beach...........we will all suffer since YOU will be another statistic against our beloved sport.

#4 I am usually all about a persons freedom to choose........and the decision to ride without a helmet is YOURS alone, not ours. However......riding with no helmet is NOT a good idea, despite your ill fated rationalization.

#5 Keep in mind........this is coming from an experienced rider who has ridden without a helmet on several occasions. The same rider is now older & much smarter & would never consider it again. Its simply not worth the chance.

AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ANYWAY, back on topic...like 4 punks said about 4 pages ago...heres a c-dale...its the owner of R&S Performance...hes a real nice guy...he let me ride it :)

Another, for those of you who have been to the badlands...the first sand bowl when you pull up is huge...well this guy could wheelie half way around it (on the bank) without touching down...on this c-dale....looks like they have a pretty nice balancing point...the 400ex might just move to #2 in "best wheelier"

Ill let this out,,then Ill be done with this post.
Dont put a forum out there and ask for pictures, when you may not like the pictures that come back. Now, I posted a picture of me without a helmet, NOT to make our sport look bad or give us a bad name, but If everyone is really that worried about it,,,perhaps someone should have mentioned not to post pics if you dont have a helmet on. The last I checked this site was free, free to come and free to stay away from! I like this site, and ive been a member now for quite some time,,,but it irks me when you try and post something without any thought of being in a battle of words, and you end up with responses like I got. So, yeah,,,i posted a picture where I had no helmet on,,,i have about 100 more pics with my helmet on,,it just so happened i posted one without. But if the internet police really have nothing better to do, than perhaps they should find another site to where they can be consumed of what other people are doing wrong.

Good point 4punksdad, I have even learned my lesson from not strapping my helmet just putting it on, lol. But I hope not to bus my brains out and ruin it for everyone so I will wear a helmet. Alot of kids that I used to ride with now none of them wear helmets and they are just stupid when they ride and everyone complains and I usually get blamed for it because I ride the most out where I am.
If your going to ruin it for everyone then don't ride. In a car you wear a seatbelt kinda like on a quad you wear a helmet. :grr :grr :grr

i've read now quite a few times on the site that it said don't post pictures with no helmets... just bc u go ur normal pace doesn't mean nothing... did u ever see how fast a crash happens half the time i can't even react to it and it comes when u least expect it... but go ahead don't wear u helmet and when u come back here and say i crashed i'm paralized now don't ask me to feel bad for u...

tommy is right, there have been many post as of late with discussion(sp) of no helmets. and if i remember right it was annonced by some of the mods NOT to post pics of riders without helmets.
also im sick of people saying this is a free site we should be able to post what ever we want, well this is free country we live in right!well does that mean you can go around murdering people?NO its mean even in a free country there are rules!
you dont like em....... leave, that goes for this great country we live in and this site.:grr
