I remember he said he was a member over here a while back, I don't know if he used the same user name but he went by rrh481 over on buellxb. any prayers are appreciated. he rode a firebolt so I thought this section was appropriate. http://greenfield.patch.com/articles/greenfield-po lice-investigating-motorcycle-crash http://www.all-out-motorsports.com/forums/showthre ad.php?33599-Milwaukee-rider-down/page2&s=e55726e0 c8d7963dd88b61d42759e11d |

Hate hearing about another rider down - especially another case of TBI and no helmet. You know him or his family? |

I've bought parts from him and talked with him on the forum. in one of those links is a facebook prayer page for him. I just keep checking for updates everywhere I can. I guess if he lives they're saying he'll probably be a vegetable and his survival chance is only like 6% but they keep saying he's better each day. I know he's in a medically induced coma til the brain swelling goes down and they aren't sure about doing surgery to relieve the pressure yet |

Just checked his FB support page, looks like he didn't make it. GEAR UP FOLKS! Rest In Peace Robert. May you smile down on the rest of us as we ride on 2 wheels. |

I hate to see any rider pass but from the comments, it looks like he was a regular stunter, drag racer and raced cars (not to say im not guilty of a few offenses from time to time) but not wearing gear? come on kids! put your pride down and wear gear! |

I'm against a mandated law that says a person over 18 HAS to wear a helmet but I respect the Law of Physics that tells me what happens to a moving object when it hits a stationary object. I own several lids and wear at least one every time, along with leather and gloves...EVEN in 120 degree Arizona heat. Rest In Peace and condolences to those you left behind... |

How sad that he will miss the best years of his life. Never met him, don't know him, but 20 is too young to die over something like wearing a helmet. |

I have destroyed two helmets and damaged others. When you are young enough, you can convince yourself that you are immortal. |
