haha. I should just go buy one now, but I'm really enjoying this no payment thing.

 

It does not look like that helmet fits him at all

Matt

 

lol right? goodbye chin.

 

Simpson helmet.. Would get. (not necessarily that one). That is what the Stig uses.

first review says enough not to buy that helmet

 

I didnt get that far, but I see it now. That screams "hipsters buy this"!!!

 

hipster galore in the reviews. most of them seem to have only worn half helmets or open to compare.

 

That's if it isn't still in the shop....

Why do you have to be on the other side of the U.S.? I'd sell my VTX and get an FZ in a heartbeat!

 

i think i would go with something like a ktm1290 or bmw gs

 

Is there a difference in (race)car helmets and motorcycle helmets?

Matt

 

depends on the helmets. i had a autox helmet that was snell approved but it didnt have a visor, vents were fixed openings, and im sure it wasnt as aerodynamic

 

Just an educated guess: Most motorcycle helmets are designed with aerodynamics in mind, so strategically placed air vents to force air through the helmet without adding wind noise.

 

Im a foot too short for the super duke otherwise trust me, I'd have one

 

i would just base that off of the safety ratings. Like DOT or Snell

 

super baby duke 390?

 

I think most car organizations only recognize snell

 

I told you all that over time would pay for some cool shit. Look at you now.

Just get the k swap done first. Then buy the husky

 

Yes.

Two totally different inspection ratings

 

yes i do need to finish that swap. whenever i get some time home..to date ive traveled 90% of the work year.
