Hopefully you do not see this issue as 100% one way or the other. Life is not like that. There is nuance to most of life's concerns, and where we draw the line moves from time to time. It is perfectly reasonable to expect riders who stupidly ride without head protection to pay more insurance. The State of Florida seems to agree.

How would they not have the responsibility of paying for their own injuries? Aren't they required to have the same insurance as cars and trucks have? I guess it is not unreasonable to expect to pay more if smokers and drinkers pay more.

I thought this was about banning motorcycles not helmet laws.
