And you say that until you have an accident.
I had an accident in my youth where I laid a bike down and slide for 300 feet. My helmet was cracked in half. If it wasn't for that helmet, I'd be dead now.
I road bikes for years, and rode in Phoenix where their wasn't a helmet law. More often than not I wore the helmet. Yes, it's claustrophobic, and yes your hearing or vision is obstructed. That's part of the motorcycle charm.
