good. probably the majority of sportbikes are dropped or totalled within 3 years by kid riders who don't wear protection, check ebay the majority of bikes sold with salvage titles are sportbikes.

in our state you see them everywhere hotdogging around sans helmet.

this is the sign of an amateur rider, a cruiser is one thing, riding sport without protection brands one as a fool.

the simple fact is, if you want to go FAST you can go much faster if you DO wear a helmet, because you can actually see where you're going.

a direct hit in the cornea by a june bug at 70mph can cost you an eye.

nice bike.
