that's all fine and dandy.....BUT perhaps if they were wearing HELMETS, they wouldnt suffered such head trauma injuries....jacket and pants....they can still break bones and get road rash, so whatever.....but I feel no sympathy...shit happens, people get ran over walking across the street all the time and there's really nothing that you can do, because you have to walk....but when you get on a motorcycle you chose to get on something that is obviously dangerous, you have nothing protecting you vs. everything, so it only makes sense to have the proper equipment and always be wearing it....

it's like would you scuba dive without a regulator? I mean....sure you have a air tank, mouthpiece, but shit dont work without that regulator....you chose to do something that puts your life in danger, you accept what happens.

I am never caught on my bike without my helmet, jacket, gloves, and boots.
