I prob would as well.. but do think twice about picking on a biker in full leathers / armour, you may just lose :-)

I've had a fat balding businessman have me by throat before on garage forecourt begging me to take lid off so 'he can av me', yeah right....

Lol, sorry, I am to damn old to come out with caveman comments like I did but people damaging other people's car through ignorance or indifference like that gets my goat. P.S. 6'7", 300lbs, not fat. I rate my chances :D. 'Cough' sorry, being a caveman again, must grow up........

It doesn't matter how big you are, if you punch a helmet you are more likely to come off worse, plus the added fact that if they headbutted you they would break your face.
 
People are pretty deluded about the effectiveness of bike kit in a fight situation.

You've got a massive bucket on your head... if someone grabs you by said bucket and pulls it, you're going where it's going because it's strapped to your head, and 1.2mm of leather and some CE armour isn't going to help much when you're lying on your side with a big man kicking you in the ribs now is it.

Bike armour is on your back, knees, elbows and shoulders. You don't see many people punching each other in the elbows.

For conclusive proof, watch motorcycle racers trying to fight each other when they get angry, it's hilarious

You would have to be quite retarded to try and punch someone in a helmet. I think most people would go for the wrestle you to the ground and kick the hell out of you technique.

Although a size 9 between the legs would sort any agro out :) leathers or not.

It does make you feel invincible though, much like being behind a computer screen. :D

The best thing would be not to get in those situations me thinks.
