Why should you wear a full-face helmet?

by Jeff Dean

Ask 1.5 million-mile BMW rider Dave Swisher, of Bowling Green, Virginia. That's his helmet after he suffered a crash in West Virginia. Dave came out of it just fine—thanks to his full-face helmet. No facial reconstruction was needed. In fact, because Dave was wearing full gear, he was able to ride home!

What would have happened had he been wearing a three-quarter helmet or, worse yet, a “shorty?”

The diagrams above show the impact areas on crash-involved motorcycle helmets. (Source: Dietmar Otte, Hannover Medical University, Dept. of Traffic Accident Research, Germany.) Note that 35% of all crashes showed major impact on the chin-bar area. This means that if you ride with an open-face helmet, you are accepting only 65% of the protection that could be available to your head.

Dave is not the only rider who was saved by his helmet. I was, too.

Years ago I was riding my R100RT south down two-lane Mission Road, south of Tucson, at about 50 MPH when a hot-tar roofer was driving north at about the same speed, pulling a trailer with his hot-tar machine on it. The left wheel came off his trailer and right into the left side of my R100RT. I had no time to react. If I was not riding a boxer BMW with a cylinder sticking out on the left side, my leg would have been mashed; the cylinder took the brunt of the damage. I was thrown off the bike and rolled down the roadway like a log. The bike was totaled. I was wearing full leathers, Bell Star XL full-face helmet, and wound up with a broken right wrist. I was picked up by an ambulance and taken to St. Joseph's Hospital ER.

At the hospital an orthopedic surgeon came in to look me over. He was from Chicago and looked and sounded just like John Belushi. He hung my damaged arm from a contraption and proceeded to move my broken bones into some kind of alignment. He then put me in a cast up past my elbow. Jill and I then flew home to Wisconsin. When I got home, my orthopedic surgeon checked me over and said “Dr. Belushi” did so well nothing else was needed.

I was wearing the Bell Star XL because at that time there was no other helmet on the market that would fit my size 8¼ (XXXL) head. It saved my head as I had no concussion. I used that helmet for several years for show-and-tell sessions in my MSF classes.

Today I have found HJC and Shoei helmets that fit my fat head. That is good because Bell no longer makes XXXL helmets.

If you ride with a shorty or half helmet, you are accepting only 39% of the protection you could obtain. You are literally throwing away 61% of the protection you would have had had you chosen a full-face helmet.

And, of course, if you ride wearing a “novelty” helmet or no helmet at all then you have none of the protection you could have chosen.

World's fastest motorcycle

World's fastest motorcycle unveiled: supercharged Kawasaki Ninja H2 uses technology from aerospace and Formula One. On sale next year from about $30,000.

There may soon be no more need for speed. Kawasaki has just unveiled a motorcycle that is so fast even daredevils are wondering if it is too powerful.

With a design inspired by Formula One race cars and a supercharged engine that uses aerospace technology, the Kawasaki Ninja H2 is expected to blast from 0 to 100km/h in less than 2.5 seconds.

It can accelerate as quick as an F1 racing machine -- if riders can hang on to it -- because the supercharged engine has almost as much power as a Volkswagen Golf GTI hot hatch, but the Kawasaki Ninja H2 weighs barely one-fifth as much as a car.

The supercharger technology is so sophisticated it has been banned from international motorcycle racing since 1946, but has returned to a modern, road-going motorcycle in the search for more power from smaller engines.

The Kawasaki Ninja H2 is expected to go on sale in Australia early next year priced about $30,000 and will be available to anyone who has completed their learner and provisional periods on their motorcycle licence.

The Ninja H2 is expected to comfortably overtake the previous title holders of the world's fastest bike including the Kawasaki Ninja ZX14-R from 2012, the Ducati Diavel from 2011, the Yamaha VMAX from 2010, and the Suzuki GSXR-1000 from 2006.

The official slogan "built beyond belief" may also go down in history as the most honest in advertising; even Kawasaki admits the Ninja H2 is "not for everyone, nor is it designed to be".

When it comes to performance the Ninja H2 is "a whole new world", said Kenichi Hashiba, the managing director of Kawasaki Motors Australia.

It is so powerful Kawasaki has fitted a range of electronics that limit power to enable it to be ridden safely in wet weather or in slippery conditions, as well as a "launch control" mode to get the perfect start.

The brakes are bigger than those fitted to a Holden Commodore V8 sedan.

"The potential buyer will probably not spend too much time debating in their head whether or not to buy it," said Mr Hashiba. "They will feel the desire inside and act on those feelings."

Contrary to expectations, the motorcycle insurance industry is not up in arms over the supercharged superbike.

"There are already motorcycles on the road that can accelerate at racing car levels and many that can do more than 300km/h," said Swann Insurance research manager Robert McDonald.

"Generally most motorcycle owners only use these speed capabilities on organised track days. There are also many cars on the road currently that can do more than 300km/h."

The insurer said it was important to note the Kawasaki Ninja H2 had the latest available safety equipment, including intelligent anti-lock brakes, as standard.

"We don't anticipate higher than normal claims rates with this motorcycle compared to other high-powered sports bikes on the road," said Mr McDonald.

Very fast facts: Kawasaki Ninja H2
Engine: Supercharged 998cc in-line four-cylinder
Power: 154.5kW at 11,000rpm (210 horsepower)
Torque: 140Nm at 10,000rpm
Transmission: Six-speed
Weight: 238kg (ready to ride)
Brakes: 330mm discs (front), 250mm (rear)
0 to 100km/h: Less than 2.5 seconds (estimated)
Top speed: 299km/h (electronically limited, race track version can reach 340km/h).

GEICO Says "Motorcycle Helmets Increase Chances of Survival by 29%."

According to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration survey, bikers wearing a DOT motorcycle helmet have a 29 percent better chance of surviving a crash than riders without a helmet.

But only 19 states, plus the District of Columbia have universal motorcycle helmet laws that require all motorcycle operators and passengers to wear a helmet. Another 28 states have partial helmet laws that do not require adults to wear a helmet, and three states (Illinois, Iowa and New Hampshire) do not have any helmet laws or restrictions.

“A motorcycle helmet is the most important piece of safety equipment that a motorcyclist has,” said Steve Stojanovich, director of GEICO’s motorcycle/RV division. “Because motorcycle regulations vary from state to state, it’s important that riders become aware of the dangers they face if they ride without one.”

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration survey also found that motorcycle helmet use in the U.S. remained at 60 percent in 2013, unchanged after a significant drop from 66 percent between the years 2010 – 2012. Helmet use continues to be significantly higher in states that have universal helmet laws.

Stojanovich mentioned that all motorcyclists should wear a Department of Transportation – approved helmet even if it’s not the law in your state. “Make sure the helmet includes a face shield or protective eyewear to minimize severe injuries in case of an accident,” said Stojanovich.

States with universal helmet laws include: Alabama, California, DC, Georgia, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Oregon, Tennessee, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, and West Virginia.
States with partial helmet laws include: Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Hawaii, Idaho, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, New Mexico, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Texas, Utah, Wisconsin, and Wyoming.

Bikers Against Breast Cancer Shirt

Our Bikers Against Breast Cancer Shirt reminds me of Brady.  Do you know Brandy?  No...Let me tell you about her: 

There's a port on a western bay

And it serves a hundred ships a day

Lonely sailors pass the time away

And talk about their homes

And there's a girl in this harbor town

And she works layin' whiskey down

They say "Brandy, fetch another round"

She serves them whiskey and wine

The sailors say "Brandy, you're a fine girl" (you're a fine girl)

"What a good wife you would be" (such a fine girl)

"Yeah your eyes could steal a sailor from the sea"

(dooda-dit-dooda), (dit-dooda-dit-dooda-dit)

Brandy wears a braided chain

Made of finest silver from the North of Spain

A locket that bears the name

Of the man that Brandy loves

He came on a summer's day

Bringin' gifts from far away

But he made it clear he couldn't stay

No harbor was his home

The sailor said " Brandy, you're a fine girl" (you're a fine girl) "What a good wife you would be" (such a fine girl) "But my life, my lover, my lady is the sea" (dooda-dit-dooda), (dit-dooda-dit-dooda-dit)

Yeah, Brandy used to watch his eyes

When he told his sailor stories

She could feel the ocean foam rise

She saw its ragin' glory

But he had always told the truth, lord, he was an honest man

And Brandy does her best to understand

(dooda-dit-dooda), (dit-dooda-dit-dooda-dit)

At night when the bars close down

Brandy walks through a silent town

And loves a man who's not around

She still can hear him say

She hears him say " Brandy, you're a fine girl" (you're a fine girl)

"What a good wife you would be" (such a fine girl)

"But my life, my lover, my lady is the sea"

(dooda-dit-dooda), (dit-dooda-dit-dooda-dit)

"Brandy, you're a fine girl" (you're a fine girl)

[FADE]

"What a good wife you would be" (such a fine girl)

"But my life, my lover, my lady is the sea"
