One of the reasons to not cut your hair and wear a turban is that a Sikh can't hide out in a crowd. You always know who is Sikh. This coupled with the mandate that a Sikh must always help those in need means that you always know where to look and ask for help.

From my perspective (US), this is a much needed belief today since it was born out of the similar circumstances in 1699.

Harley's and helmets weren't there then. Now if they want to ride they should wear a helmet, why make special exceptions for religious beliefs?
