Did ja ever think that the bikers are so well organized that they would pack the state house if a helment bill was proposed. Legislators don't want to deal with bikers. Bikers scare em. Ever wonder why the bikers can make all the noise they want with their big toys. After all there are inspections standards. They arent enforced by cops. They scared of bikers also.....report abuse
