Gidday Guys,
Just picked myself up an FFM M7 helmet for a great price of $99! I haven't been able to road test it, as I don't actually have a motorbike <img height="25" src="http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/images/smilies/doh.gif" alt="DOH!" />
But I'll give it a quick once over incase anyone's interested.
It's got neat little vents all over it, chin, crown and the back.
All of the pads are removable - it'll last a lot longer since they're washable.
Easily removable and cheap visors. They just click off.
Looks good, hopefully I wont get lost in the traffic with this bad boy on.
Conforms to the ECER-22 standard.
Weighs 1350gms, give or take 50gms. Much lighter than my old man's TourPro.
Double D fastner.
Fits really well, not tight anywhere, not loose anywhere.
FFM is an oldschool NZ brand from the 70's, keep it in the family! Though these would have to be made overseas at this amazing price.
PRICE! If I drop it it's not the end of the world. It'll go in the bin in a few years due to natural degredation. No big deal.
Aparently they whistle a bit at speed, they don't muffle much noise and sometimes the visor doesn't seal too well. But I'll find this out for myself in a few weeks. Hopefully I wont have to report back how well it works in a bin!
