Helmet or not, do-rags and motorcycles are like peas and carrots.

Re: Do you wear a do-rag?
I have one. I use it to clean up oil spills. 

People say I'm stupid and apathetic. I don't know what that means, and I don't care.

Always wear a helmet, eye protection, and protective clothing. Never ride under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

Re: Do you wear a do-rag?
i love using the damn 'buffs' - id much rather wash the sweat out of the 'rag' than my arai. that being said, the polar buff kept me awesomely nice and toasty riding all winter long!
still recovering - back to crutches, then walking with a stick, then running - then hopefully riding again!

Re: Do you wear a do-rag?
Had to google what it was.
No, but I wear a balaclava in winter.

I'm too sexy for a do-rag.

Re: Do you wear a do-rag?
Tried it for a bit, since I was tired of looking like a Ninja or a mugger whenever I took off my helmet. Went back to using a balaclava; the do rag felt too lumpy under my lid.

Re: Do you wear a do-rag?
I've never actually worn one before, but I can see it's benefits.

Re: Do you wear a do-rag?
I always wear a helmet and a do-rag. The do-rag keeps the inside of the helmet clean and keep the lining of the helmet from pulling my hair.
Safety First! Enjoy the Ride!
