Yep, Totally different riding experience. I've totaled three,twice, no helmet, third time, modular FF, saved me. First one, landed on the side of my head and a shoulder. Laying my head over so hard it cracked three vertebrae. A helmet woulda been a fatal fulcrum. It's all in the crash,, the second one I broke the handle bars, right where thigh becomes torso. The hematoma hospitalized me a few days. Head never got touched.. So, once, helmet woulda been fatal. Once, didn't matter. Once, saved my bacon.
Check out the Hurt report. And,someone had a breakdown on heads hitting.. The big percentage included face impact.
Odds are, the helmet is your friend. At the end of the day, it's your call. I miss riding, some days, it's Really bad, but I don't miss watching the morons and making efforts to stay visible to them.
