SBF Silverwings / HOM Cafe 2012

i know le cos i juz call them. the N62 matt black got L, dun have S size. glossy black have S, dun have L... =_="

N43 Air got L, dun have S... and its kinda out of my budget leh...

the chin bar good anot? cos its detachable 1... i read about its review. good rating for wind noise level.

 

the chinbar not as good as a full face but its quite sufficient as it can turn into an open face helmet too.

Best of all theres a shade visor built in, so if u always travels east and west you might need it to cut the glare from the sun.

After using it for 2 weeks i am quite satisfied with the quality considering the price of 290.

I wanted to get Arai TX3 but Chiap lee dun have the colour i want plus its a bit costly too aroun $700.

So downgraded to Nolan. So far so good. Plus its approved by PSB. So good with streets if uncle sam sees you lol

I think we should compile a list of SW riders with different specs of SW in the forum. lol

Hmm Helmet is the only hard thing that is protecting you ba haha.

I rather burn a hole in my pocket than to burn a hole on my head lol

[Scarab]

For nolan helmets, if your cushion is washable, pray that they are not using double sided velcro to secure the cushion to helmet shell. In our climate, double side tape velcro isn't going to cut it (especially if you had just rode through a heavy downpour and the inside of the helmet are wet, too)

 

Try to get one that uses button to secure the cushion to the shell...

[scoobydoo]

that one thing i dun like about nolan helmets is the shell's size... makes smaller sized riders like me look like ET (small body big head)

did u see it on webby or in shop? price? some models are not available locally and need to order... by then, may cost somewhere near the maxia liow

 

my friend is using the 46L V46 which also costs >$200+, nice box but not worth the $$ for that 1L more... so i tia tia burn the pocket and get the 52L Maxia.

 

E45 to E52... per additional L = ($280+$50-$110)/(52L-45L) = $31.43/L

E45 to V46... per additional L = ($240-$110)/(46L-45L) = $130/L

very clear which is more worth the upgrade

I find the Nolan N43 Air helmet very squeaky inside especially when you move your jaw.

It's not worth the money. The chin guard is a joke. Regret buying. Should have bought the N103 instead.

Changed my tires to Diablo at Motoworld yesterday ($170).

No more wobble at 40-50km/h.

 

The stock just arrived this week. Those who need better get it quick.

 

Also got my spare keys programmed.

It was free (cos bikeshop owe me the service) and took only abt 5 mins.

 

Also... got Goldwing 1.8 selling $46k at M1 Motor.

Almost new at only 2k in mileage.

Anyone or your friends interested can go take a look.

Was considering the HJC IS Multi, Nolan N43 Air and the Givi x01.

Heard they give good ventilation and big big visor for good view angle.

 

Think... must remain with my Rollbahn for the time being. Broke liao.

Yeah it has a very wide angle view. The visor quality also very good not like some 40 dollars helmet. Comparable to Ram3.

except its quite squeeky when you put it on.

 

Robin: Yeah the chinguard is not a joke, its just a substitute for a full face.

If you want full protection then u should be looking for better brands with full face lol.

 

My intention to get this was because it has a visor, a very wide angle view, and good ventilation.

[Elton]

I will have a pair of stock new tires for sale in Dec 2010 for SW-T400.

Anyone interested please let me know.
