    Hey Hitch, your helmet arrived yet?
    I have just found out that they have removed the word gullible from the dictionary

    Ignore all this I was thinking of the Patriotic .....

    xr1000 empire(Patriotic) what a great idea I bet it will appeal to the likes of Jimbo. Think I saw something like this years ago in some biker movie only it was done with an American flag.

    The helmet in question is in Kiwirider mag as well in the new products section.

    Don't get excited. Your blood pressure, you know. (They sell yamahas)
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    My wife has problems with helmets also due to fact she needs an xxs or xs.

    After her recent off, she started looking around for helmets, decided on one, a shoei, in xs, none in the country, have to wait for shoei next shipment to see if they brought any in. Shipment due in febuaray, this is back in december, saying this she had just brought a brand new gsxr1000, and how she meant to ride with out a helmet.

    So she brought an xs shoei raid II helmet from ebay, was here with in 8 days. She got helmet, visor, and set of full race technic gloves for same price as helmet here.

    In turn found out the raid II are a half size bigger than the raid I, so on sold this to her sister, since it fitted her prefectly, over her old rf900. We were just gonna get bigger check pads and space it out like you can with sheoeis but her sister wanted it so its all good.

    Next step she ordered a suomy spec-1r hodgson, with mirror visor. in turn this is landed with in 7 days, in the country for around $600. The helmet alone is over $1000 here. Fits perfect and she happy as larry. and gets helmet for 1/2 price it is here.

    Before you ask no duty, gst nothing, thats how much it cost to land at our door.
