Okay, most guys that ride choppers/Harleys where "skull cap" helmets, right? What if I could develop a oh, 3/4 helmet that they would wear? Of course you full face helmet guys would still exclaim that they are junk and won't save your face in a crash... BUT if I could show that they are 300% more impact resistant than a skull cap and the guys would wear them. Isn't that an improvement?

Dude, there is no way you're going to get a guy in India to wear a pair of $400 A* boots on his Honda Super Cub. I'll say it again, anything is better than nothing! Heck, maybe we can get them to tape a couple sandwiches to their knees while we're at it...
Good idea, then they can grab a bite if they get hungry.
