One hell of a ride.
I can hear the naysayers '$10 helmet for a $10 head' already - but considering some of the shitters that I've seen hanging off motorcycles lately....some have been dropped 3 or 4 times or were new in 1975. One of these would have to be safer.
These have European approval (no not dot) but for 79 bucks....a spare, an occasional pillion, one for the office 'just in case'. Or if you are riding around in an ill fitting Bell that grandad gave you....They look OK too.
Lou can get/has them I'm told.
Look Ma, no hands hehehe
Big Dave - What sizes do they come in?

Indeed. Why is it that helmet sellers always overlook this reality...Originally Posted by crashe

I know what you're saying, but NO. Ask anyone who has seen my helmet, after my last accident. The only reason I'm alive is that my helmet did it's job. I paid about $650 for mine so it was only midrange, as some go for over $1000 now.
Had I been wearing my first helmet (a much cheaper helmet), I probably would be dead now. I had a small area of temporary "damage" that left me with double vision constantly. LUCKILY it suddenly went away a little while back.
Please people, don't buy a bike till you can afford decent gear (even for the occasional pillion)

Some don't from now on.
I know you favor the Shoeis - Would you like 'pssst sneak preview' of the 06 graphics on the QT?

Cheapskate! - mine retails for $1,350 so i know what you are saying - but the reality is there are kids riding round in things that are un-safer than these.

Not sure if I said this somewhere else already but a friend of mine went to buy a helmet for use with a speedway car. He assumed he needed a Bell. He was advised that once the helmet contains a recognised safety standard that's it. Other helmets may be quieter, they may be more comfortable, you may prefer to pay for a fancy name, or for a fancy paint job, but the extra cash really doesn't buy any additional safety.
In consequence he bought a more modestly priced helmet and a second-hand flame proof driving suit for similar money to what he would have paid for just the Bell.

Yes please! If there are any worth having in a XXL, I may see if Whites are prepared to be brave and order me one in on indent...

Do the XR1000 and Raid share a visor?
And the XXL won't be on no boat. It will be buried in a shed in Japan somewhere, if they ever made one. Sob...

I think most shops will stock them. They are from White's Powersports if they don't.
