Thanks! Keep in mind the motorcycle helmet is worn to prevent head injuries if thrown from the motorcycle. The FUV has seatbelts, rollover protection, 1/2 door and full hardshell enclosure door options. I ordered the Silver Base with Yellow Accent Color. Not my favorite color, but highly visible for that added margin of safety.Gotcha.... I was just wondering.
It’s a neat looking machine and I’m sure it would be fun to drive. No doubt about that.
Just my opinion, but I’m not so sure it would be like wearing a helmet in an Elio. Requirement wise - maybe... but safety wise I don’t think they’re quite the same. The Elio has (one day?) a door and a solid wall with glass. These will keep head, arms inside - typically. Unless you’re getting doors and glass.... I don’t think it’s quite the same.
Open back roads and slow city traffic, i’d Probably ride without a helmet. But in traffic thats faster and heavier, I might have to put a bucket on.
Congrats of the new ride coming. Hope to hear all about it with photos.....
What color are you getting?
I realize The FUV doesn’t meet your needs, but test drive it when it gets to your area.......it’s a blast and I guarantee a smile!
