I've done that at Slow Riding training events (on a private car park), although it's interesting that, if you're used to a lid and earplugs, you over-estimate your speed because the engine sounds are louder.
At any other time I'd wear a helmet without question, however I think it should be a matter of personal choice since it's pretty much only your own life you're risking.
