Car helmet - what do you use..

[DanM]

Asking completely out of interest, and i'm genuinely curious....

 

Roughly what percentage of owners typically do you think use helmets, I rarely see them in photos that are posted and I hadn't considered it myself until I read this thread. Sounds like something I'd consider.

Always wear mine when I haven’t got my temporary screen on. Doesn’t just stop stones!

My car has an aeroscreen, pretty much always wear a helmet in mine.

 

Mind you, I'm far more photogenic with a helmet and dark visor 😂

Do many with full screens wear them?

On longer runs I do, especially if there's a lot of dual carriageway in the journey. Reduces the physical buffeting you get. I'm tall and run with wind deflectors not side-screens so my head's quite exposed to the elements.

I don’t use one with my full screen, used to use side doors or deflectors to limit buffeting etc.

 

Not sure what I’ll do when I fit my full cage tbh……🤔
