and Kmax...agreed with Angelo...the TX peak,will smack right in when doing high speed...unlike the Hornet...the Hornet peak is more thick and sturdy with better support unlike the thin TX peak which only supported with sidescrews on both side and none in the middle...

 

The only plus point on the TX is the cosmetic factor...

 

Looks kewl with or without peak,and design is nice.

In terms of practical,it's not there judging with a big price tag.now you're only talking about riding it for the roads,try off-road then...you swear it's a damn helmet.

oh.. no... what have i done.. http://www.advrider.com/forums/images/smilies/baldy.gif

 

i agree Hornet has better vision, better airflow on going low speed, more like offroad helmet.

 

TX is just like other Arai FF, narrow down view, limited airflow. but may be sizing.. or may be headshape.. Shoei Hornet L(59~60) feels really tight to my head.

 

now Arai TX M(57~58) fits just nice.

 

anyway.. one of carpe member ditched TDM and jumped to XTZ... he said

 

the 1200cc is a bit like a TDM with a Turbo.

oops... damage has been done..

 

and my shoei hornet is not DS model, it's older one, lining and cushion is good but fitting is very tight, shoulda get bigger size next time. and visor vibrates if i tilt my head or caught cross wind at high speed, that's why i switched to TX.

 

TX feels like normal FF helmet, will test it for coming trip :angel:

 

you all rich la... always test expensive helmet... hahaha...

nabei...all those weird names...

 

this thread starts to drift further and further away from it's title...:box:

 

 

anyways...i just got a confirmation from ADVrider...that the tenere1200 is indeed Made in Japan...:thumb:

unlike it's little brudder the 660Z...

http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/6906/giorti21kaierhomosmihan.jpg

 

So,Mr Lee of Loois sure have something to look into...he die die said it's not made in Japan...and the one he is bringing in,made in Italy with full kit that's why the ridiculous price of 40grand...

 

So,i think now he better offer somethg below 30grand....than i would be glad to do biznez again with him...

Tomoro after going to market with the missus,i am going to bring her to the Yamaha showroom...I hope something good will come....:pray:

Hmmm... Dun think it's impossible. If AJ still has the Grandpa Tenere, can check with him the measurement of the hub of he's bike to see if it fits..

I think Mr Lee got this one wrong... But since he's bringing in, I dun think he'll be the dumbto charge higher than HL. If he really does then wait awhile I believe he's price will drop once he realise he can't let go at that price.
