Testing or not "high speed" requires a helmet under any conditions. Hubby adjusted suspension yesterday I still donned the draggins and a helmet to run her down the road to test! ACC just love these stats!

Well Draggins are shit useless, too! You may as well wear trackpants

Why would you test ride a bike with no suspension adjustments other than preload? You set that shit and forget it.
Just faidin away!
The guy's only crime (IMHO) is that he just gave ACC a whole lot of kudos to their argument,
that motorcycles are dangerous and that motorcyclists are cocks!
For that he should be taken outside and shot for treason!
Wherever you go, there you are
Umm no big safety stick waving here. The law says wear a helmet, thats it and people can ride naked for all I or the law care. However deciding to ride without a helmet, whether testing or joyriding and you bust up your head then don't expect others to pay to fix it. Simple.
If you love it, let it go. If it comes back to you, you've just high-sided!

I have seen a plonker who decided to do a wheelie, naked on a runway one night and fell off. The funny pink and red mark down the tarmac was his skin and meat. Not pretty.
On this subject, I have recently had a big crash and due to the safety gear I was wearing the damage was limited to 16 weeks of work, temporary paralysis from the neck down, months of pain and damage that will possibly be permanent.
Had I not been wearing the full gear I would quite possibly be dead. Even if it was legal to do so, I would never ride a motorbike on the road (or off road for that matter) without a helmet or safety gear. Its just not worth the risk

I have a gas axe and a welder! What do you mean "it won't fit"?

Like the ones we wore in the eighties that were so tight our man bits were on full display to all and sundry.

I don't care how hot it gets I will always wear my track pants. I won't wear jandals though because I have some proper leather scuffs that offer much more protection.
I always make sure my head is protected and I have just bought a flash as bandanna for the job, it's much cooler than my old one. I never wear a singlet, I make it a rule to always wear a minimum of a T-shirt, got a neat Mr Vintage one too that's real choice.
I mainly ride at night, and because I know that all cagers are out to kill me I have disconnected all my lights so it's much harder for them to see me and try to take me out.
Gloves are also a safety hazard they are way too limiting on your sense of feel when it comes to operating the controls safely. Especially when all my mates want to see me do a big fark off burnout and a stoppie in the pub carpark at closing time.
If I wasn't wearing all my gear I would have really hurt myself that time I fell off while I was trying to do a wheelie in front of the pie-cart on SH1. Luckily the logging truck driver managed to stop in time, and got out and helped me pick my bike up.
Some dork called the cops, but I heard their sirens coming and nailed it past the picture theatre at 120 ks just as all the kids were coming out from Harry Potter - who TF starts a 3 hour movie at midnight anyway?
One kid's gran nearly pulled out in front of me and almost took me out, so I kicked her fricken wing mirror off and yelled at her a bit. Dizzy old bint started to cry and said something about not bein' able to see me cos my lights didn't work. That's why I got frikken loud pipes innit nanna? What's wrong? ACC won't giz you a battery for yer hearing aid? Silly old biddy!
When I got home I rolled up the sleeves of me T-shirt and flexed me biceps in front of the bathroom mirror and reflected on what a dangerous bastard I am.
I'm thinking about shaving my head and moving to Christchurch cos I hear that's where real tough cnuts live, and I can do plenty more runners from the cops who are all pumped up on their boi racer laws down there.
Anybody know how much it costs to take a Keeway on the ferry?
Remember ATGATT people!
Keep on chooglin'
