    New law requiring helmets in california

    I agree with you about Crook and RHOVA they both suck. I am just not quick to through CORVA in the mix because of some rouge asshole that use to be presidents used their name when they shouldn't of. CORVA has done more than anyone else.

    New law requiring helmets in california

    I get everyone's pissed off about the past presidents endorsements but they are "past" not present presidents. CORVA as a body did not endorse him. But I feel CORVA is about the offroad community's only option. Know one else stepped up and talked to manufactures to get legislation written to...

    New law requiring helmets in california

    I disagree. This bill has a chance. It could have easily gone away already in committee. Plus this one is a CORVA sponsored bill they did their homework with manufactures to get this bill written so that they would all agree with it. But this bill does not make helmets go away that is something...

    New law requiring helmets in california

    Yeah that's the site I use to track it's progress. I even have an email alert setup with that site to let me know when anything happens with this bill. Also there's another bill out to do the same AB-64. But it hasn't move as well as SB-234 has.

    There is a bill in the state senate that is going to the floor any day that will correct everything except the helmet portion. Thanks to corva and there hard work talking with the manufactures and politicians we have a bill to help out some. The bill is SB-234. I know this doesn't remove the...

    All UTV's Headphones vs stereo vs engine?

    Depends on my mood. But now with this stupid ass helmet law I can hear my passengers talk any more, can't hear my stereo worth a crap when I am moving, and the sound of the engine is muffled. So now I wanna do some type of head set system but I am not sure what I want to run. Mainly because I do...

    Yamaha Found out what a bad sheave looks like..

    Damn I would almost service every trip out at that rate. I run greaseless. I know that James has people running grease but I really don't want to mess with all that. I like greaseless. Wash out the dust every now and then and blow it dry. But I don't ride mud. All desert here.

    Yamaha Rhino Owners?

    Keep up on the air filter for sure. I bought an extra one so I can swap out filters after each weekend and clean the one I took out and oil it and have it ready to rock. I usually go over all the bolts on the suspension and wheel lugs at least twice during the season. I change oil after every...

    Very well could be staged but I am sure the salesman had zero idea what was about to happen. Kind of like being "punked".

    Still want to debate the HELMET LAW????

    This is it right here. The helmet will jot save your life no matter what. Plus there hasn't even been a study done to prove how much safer anyone is with it on, especially kids. The kid side of this is completely a different beast, if you are going to run around with them in your vehicle like a...

    Still want to debate the HELMET LAW????

    The only debate that should be had is the one he had with himself before he went riding! That's the way it should be, you make your own decisions on how you want to handle YOUR own situations and deal with the consequences of your actions. It's not my place to force my ideas on anyone, nor is...

    Hemet Law Sucks!!!

    Buy a dot sticker for the back of it. Also strip any other sticker the helmet has off of it that would quickly identify it as a snowboard helmet. I am wearing a novelty motorcycle helmet with a dot sticker and the kids are wearing snowboard helmets with dot stickers. It at least helps upon...

    Hemet Law Sucks!!!

    FYI there is a state senate bill that is out (SB-234) that accomplishes what ab64 does but it also ditches the hand hold bullshit too. Still stuck with the helmets on either one. Use the following link and search for the bill. http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billSearchClient.xhtml

    I don't know if I would call Crook a republican. He may run as one and like to call himself one but he sure has not acted like one. Not after the stuff I have read about that guy. Imus is what true republicanism is about. He understands little government and isn't bought and paid for by...

    New law requiring helmets in california

    So Ed is looking for someone to send to DC to help close down Johnson Valley also. If Cook makes it to DC (I hope not) watch him vote and I bet he votes for anything the marines want regardless of who he steps on doing it. I don't care what people say I don't think Cook is trust worthy and I...

    Who has the right helmet suggestion for this new crazy law???

    The biggest thing is having a helmet while harnessed that doesn't cause the head to be forced down. That is what I am going through. Their heads don't crest the back of the seat so whiled harnessed in their moto helmet cause them to look at the floor instead of ahead. I can definitely see a...

    Glamis Rangers already TICKETING for HELMETS????

    That proves the point they can't enforce the dates are there. If you search the vehicle codes on DMVs site those codes are not even in the book yet. Which based on the date could not be in this years vehicle code book. I just don't see how anyone could be getting sited. I see being informed...

    Glamis Rangers already TICKETING for HELMETS????

    I just looked it up. The law isn't even on the vehicle code book yet. So there is no possible way they can site you. They don't have a law on "the books" with a penal code/vehicle code to enforce this law. I don't see how any one could get sited yet?

    New law requiring helmets in california

    As it stands now are practice is they hold on to their harnesses. Keeps their hands close to them and for small kids its easier to hug than to grasp and hold onto something. Can anyone explain why this would be a bad thing? Why a hand hold is better if mounted to the cage? Since their feet...

    New law requiring helmets in california

    I agree. I just was kicking this around as an idea. But also thought about the I don't have them and the law doesn't state you have to have them. If you don't have them you don't have to reach them. I don't know, guess have to wait and see.

    I have heard figure on 6 hours. Also you have no cell service out there. But you can get it you just have to get to the other side of the mountains (towards freeway). I to have wanted to do this ride but I want to do it on my dirt bike.

    Glamis Rangers already TICKETING for HELMETS????

    Even after having read the law I asked Jeff Knoll also about the helmet requirements and he stated his information was DOT or higher in specification. I have just seen it posted more than once and more than on this forum that rumors are spreading about helmet requirements. I say get to know the...

    New law requiring helmets in california

    The feet don't have to touch the floor anymore but all riders while sitting with backs flat against the seat back must be able to reach the hand hold. My question is about the hand holds. I currently don't have any in the rear. We never needed them but was considering the hand holds that attach...

    New law requiring helmets in california

    Question, I have read the law multiple times. But nowhere does it state that a hand hold is mandated by law. So if you don't have a hand hold how could a passenger reach one? So for kids you took them out and maybe replaced with the hand holds that fasten to the harnesses. Now no matter your...

    Glamis Rangers already TICKETING for HELMETS????

    Read the reference got the helmet in the law. It takes you to the vehicle code for helmets (motorcycle law). Just needs to be DOT stickered helmet. Nothing in that law states it has to have a full face, cover ears, etc. just only reference is to DOT.

    New law requiring helmets in california

    Jeff I think it is probably easier and better to use what ISA has in place. I don't think it would be hard to get traction on this and get it growing fast. Especially with the current law that just got passed. I to enjoy the SxS sport and I do enjoy riding my dirt bike to, but riding a SxS is...

    Jeff what does ISA have in place to start a watch dog group for UTVs? Or how much more work is it to be able to do it? Or are you talking about starting a a new org? Just curious because the debate is great but action needs to take place now. Something needs to change.

    No tax income to California will stop nothing. There already is a income gap in California in the billions (probably soon to be trillions) and they honestly don't seem to concerned about it. This state hopefully can go bankrupt soon so it can be divided up into proper sizes and represented...

    But reading it is still not fool proof. Most of these guys are either not listening them selfs or are not present when it being read. Kind of like that bored kid in school. But it may tie up enough time that they could not accomplish any thing, and that can be a good thing. Our biggest problem...

    To add we in California have a budget crisis and they all felt this law and other like it are all more important than finding places to slash cost and balance a budget. They should not be able to work on any more legislation until they can balance a budget without a tax increase.

    Jeff in our lifetime it has not been like it was in the founding era. The size of this union is out of scope. That is the main reason our republic is ran like it is. But as long as people are content with being told what to do in the name of safety then it will continue to get worst. I don't see...

    Who has the right helmet suggestion for this new crazy law???

    Jeff are you saying it has to be SNELL rated also? I read it to say minimum has to be DOT rated. Not SNELL rated. All helmets that are SNELL rated already carry the DOT rating. Making DOT a minimum rating.

    Who has the right helmet suggestion for this new crazy law???

    In order for them to require a helmet that is of a certain style would mean another amendment to the law. Currently the law for helmets will go into effect jan 1, 2013. The part that does delay enforcement is the rear seats that are not factory installed. Also the feet touching the floor boards...

    New law requiring helmets in california

    If they all really backed it then why did it get amended so quickly? I think because once the phone calls and emails poured in they all finally read what they thought was a good bill based on the what the idiot Cook had told them. Then realized they screwed up by not doing their job and reading...

    I don't feel people that are pro "helmet" get attack. It's being "pro helmet law" that brings fire. I am pro safety but how do you tell the next guy his safety procedures are not valid and should be changed via law because they are not in line with yours. I believe this sport has it dangers as...

    Couple of question in regards to the girl. How was the driver driving? Was it safe to conditions? Was she using a seatbelt? Was she drunk? Not pointing fingers at her just making a point that maybe the helmet would have not saved her, perhaps it would have been done other simple choices she...

    Let me ask the question or better yet questions? Why would you all sit idly by and wait to see all these helmet laws go into effect (I.e. in a car)? Why would you continue to make excuses for the behavior of ELECTED officials, by saying this is just how it is? Why not get involved in your vote...
