Well after my "incident" a few weeks ago, I got my replacement helmet today :eek: Since the XR900 doesn't get made anymore, I had to get the XR1000, what a shame :killingme

Here is the pic off the shoei website:

Here are some pics i just took with my digi cam. (http://homepages.paradise.net.nz/k14/helmet.html)

Just went for a ride for the first time. It is definately alot noiser than my XR900, and not as comfortable at the moment, but that should get better with time. Like the design aswell aye, looks quite cool i reckon. Now I just need to get an iridium visor, going to cost $155 :eek5:

What exactly is an iridium visor?

A tinted one with the mirror finish. You can get them in gold, blue or silver. They look major bling and I think its compulsory I get one :msn-wink:

Yip, the thing on the back is a fin. It also has the outlet vents for the air in the helmet.

Took my fairings into the plastic welders yesterday, going to be ready in 2 weeks. Should look like new when I get them back.

Look at a thread i made a few weeks ago GL, all is revealed in there.
