a couple weeks ago we were all downtown at club w, there were about 20-25 bikes lined up out front. around 3 am, some dude comes along cutting straps and swipin helmets. i had left by that point, but i hear he got away with a few. just proves that sometimes locking your shit up still isnt going to help your case, but unlocking it, thats just retarded. ---

> [@sedlmeier101](#): > > yeah, I could really care less though. I’d rather be “that guy” than have my helmet stolen. word. helmets are expensive. i don’t worry about it being locked up at ecc too much. i’d be more concerned about it downtown or something. any time i have my helmet locked at ecc, there’s a ducati 999 or a suzuki drz400sm with the same shoei unlocked and there’s that gixxer with the unlocked shoei. they’ll take that one first. plus my head is so big, no one needs a helmet my size. :lol: ---

I’d be seriously bent if someone cut the strap on my helmet. That takes some balls. ---

well the strap can be replaced, i thought the same thing. but when your a crackhead and youll do anything to make a buck, why not sell a busted helmet? lol fucking scumbags. ---

doesn’t matter at that point, they have the helmet. I was just glad they didn’t fuck up the seat or the tail plastic in the process. ---
