PostHeaderIcon do you have to have a helmet that is dot approved to ride on the street? if the helmet is dot approved it has?


the letters d o t on the back right? also, is it legal for me to ride my motorcycle with the letters painted over so you cant see them? and can the letters be a sticker or have to be part of the helmet?

all helmets have to have a clearly shown dot approval or standards sticker.in australia it must have a australian standards sticker,or its illegal.

PostHeaderIcon Why do or don’t you wear a motorcycle helmet?


I’m giving a speech on the use of motorcycle helmets, and I would love to hear what you have to say about it. Just give me some reasons why you wear a helmet or why you do not wear a helmet.

Feel free to say whatever is on your mind.

Thanks,
Joe

I wear a helmet because it is the law.

In the U.S., roughly half of all motorcyclists ride in States with mandatory helment laws; the other half are considered adults capable of making their own decisions. In the States that do not require helmets some significant percentage of riders do not wear helmets.

*IF* helmets actually were effective in preventing deaths *then* the States that mandate helmets would have a significantly lower death rate per motorcycle accident. The truth is that in the States that mandate helmets the death rate per motorcycle accident is insignificantly *higher*

The claim that Motorcycle Helmets save lives is not supported by statistical evidence. Motorcycle helmet LAWs save lives by reducing the number of motorcyclists.

PostHeaderIcon Tattoo artist needed!?


I Have ideas of a tattoo i want drawn up and am wondering if there are any tattooist on here or even people that can draw to draw up my tattoo..

Its a motor cross pin up girl and she will be wearing motor cross pants, boots/heels ( haven’t really decided), with just a bikini top on (big boobs) and would really dramatic hair and eyes.

These are photos of a rough idea..

Love how the body is done (not the head!)

And i love eyes so would love them to stand out..

If anyone could help me out that would be so awesome!
Willing to pay!
I do NOT want to go to a tattoo artist yet! I would like to get some stuff drawn up first.. i know how tattoo artists get when you get picky and not 100% whether i will get it!

Guys please dont just repeat what the last person said!

If there is someone here who is willing let me know please!

Any respectable tattooist isn’t gonna take time out of his/her busy day to draw up a tattoo for free.

Go to a tattoo parlor!!
