October 15th 2006 - Gear Review Part 5 (Helmet)

When the entire left side of your head/face bounces off the pavement, you'll be glad you were wearing a full face helmet too! (And for a change this isn't BMW gear.)

What is the problem, if any, with BMW gear? (just wondering after reading your video comment) :P

It's not cheap! But the quality is awesome.

here in Taiwan in most of the shops they would tell you that its impossible to try a helmet... if u do then u should buy it... then u ask, how do i know if it fits? and they say that its their job to know which one will fit better.... all bcz "no one will buy a helmet that has been tested before" morons

[SmileFacePal]

Can you wear those with a scooter or would that look stupid?

Also, I wear glasses but would it work?

Thanks!

Oh, and it is Sho-ay lol. Hunday . . . . like Sunday

Switched to Etymotic ER-6i earphone/plugs a while back. I don't listen to music while I ride anymore, but I still use those plugs.

Ditch the generic Home Depot ear plugs, and head over to you local Guitar Center. You can get some ear plugs there called "Hearos High Fidelity Series" They give flat attenuation of approximately 19db across the spectrum. Washable and Reusable. Check em out!

I'm glad you guys replied to my comment... I like to know the proper way of saying things, even if it means being corrected and made to look like a fool. I'm kinda picky about things like that which is why when I run across goofy names I often times just call the company, but as I've found out here, that isn't always worth a hill of beans. Thanks, oh and keep up the good work on the videos as I have enjoyed many of them.

:) Well, it wouldn't surprise me if they Americanized it... thanks for the reply though, I like to be corrected by people who can actually explain things a bit. Now if we can just get everybody else to start saying it the correct way :) .
