Maybe if he isn't wearing a helmet, the mask helps keep bugs out of his mouth.

Sure, must also drive with open mouth. NB that wearing a helmet is mandatory, for once with good reason. And that 90% of those who wear helmets don't fasten, or adjust the strap, which is like not wearing a helmet.

Well I think he would want the protection of a helmet face shield also to keep all those viral particles from smashing into his eyes as well as his mouth and nose at speed.

Full face helmets are the ones to use anyway, most head injuries involve the face. Motorcycle neck braces fit full face helmets as well. Who wears a mask under a full face helmet because of the *virus*? He must already be a pretty big moron. Face shields apropos, have you seen what a full face helmet looks like yet, with all the openings for air circulation? The only valid reason to wear a mask is to protect yourself from the greasy parts of vehicle exhausts, especially Diesel.

I didn't mean that he should wear a mask under the helmet, but maybe instead of one. I was just being facetious anyway.
