THIS is why we wear helmets

[MikeSP1]

Holy crap. And he had a cheap helmet on, imagine if he'd spent the money on an Arai or Shark. But that helmet was absolutely mangled. It's a good thing that he didn't get hit by a tire.

wow! just wow!

Very lucky guy. I about got tuned by a minivan because of that exact same thing. Dumb pass on my part that almost ended badly.

Glad he made it.

i've got no hesitation passing somebody, but heres the thing, i fucking PASS THEM.



if im on a 2 lane rd, i kick it down to 2nd or 3rd, rev that bitch till its screaming so they know im comming, and get up into the 80's 90's so they dont even have a chance to pull some stupid shit.


none of this stupid creep by somebody. i make it quick and humiliating.

Holy shit. How in the hell is that helmet, or his head, still intact?

Agreed, but we only know the computer animation was slow. Hauling ass was the only thing that saved me. The entire front end of the minivan was to my right. I'm always leary of passes now. I'd rather hold off on a pass than make one I regret. I occasionally will make a fake pass or two just to make sure that the driver uses their turn signal for left turns.

My minivan lady didn't.

I am the same way. I normally drop down to 3rd or 4th and hit it pretty hard. Look down as I am about to switch back to the same lane and its normally 100 to 105. And I will pass in double yellow as long as I feel it is safe and it isn't a cop SUV in front of me.

Which yeah the helmet saved his life but does he know how much cooler he'd look without one or atleast a Chrome Dome???

Glad I got my HJC!!! Of course I don't have his semi-good luck.

Saw a scrawny late sixties guy wearing a chrome WWII german helmet with his 20 something attractive girlfriend on the back of a ZX-14 on HWY 116 a while back.


I guess the Viagra is working. Or it coulda been the "hemet".
