its not wat ppl think... its what u think. its for ur own safety loh... besides, if u r those easily paiseh ppl like me... wearing fullface no ppl can see ur face le... so no need paiseh

[jaredl]

small bikes?? with full faces?? depends on the wearer's preference lor, if he wan safety, then that's the way to go lor, if he wants to pose,( eg. wear a full face with daryl beatty design) on a rx100, i'll laff off my head) then good luck to him lor, looks more like a clown on wheels lor. anyway, the cup is half empty or half full, just depends on how you look at it.

as long as u like loh... have seen ppl on scooters wear FF oso....

Unless you have horns sticking out of your helmet and a red rubber nose jutting out from your visor, why is it funny?

 

For ur "friends" who says "u think u are rich ah" . I feel that they are richer--they can afford to pay for corrective, constructative and plastic surgery. Having said this, I would understand that there are some who can only make-do with with open face gpr,nova or zeus helmet,I am one. Saving up for a full face one now.

 

For those who accuses u of being a poser, a racer-wannabe. What about the predator soccer boots that they buy or the oakleys? It doesnt make them any more the ronaldo, beckham and beach hunk.

Similarly buying a full face doesn't make u any more colin edward or rossi-like.

 

And for facts, if u go to thailand, almost everyone on a bike, from cubs to rxz are wearing a full face, even if its a cheap full face helmet.

 

Those who say wearing a full face helmet is funny must be laughing their guts out when they set foot in thailand.

I agree with u..............

[A3roSmith]

one bad thing is idiots will always try to jio u to race

esp if ur FF got pattern

and u riding sportsbike as well

[william_liu]

Then you pretend to get ready to race, get your revs up and aggressive posture... then when the lights turn green move off very slowly while the other joker zooms off and pray there's a TP waiting in front......

 

 

Anyway I wear a FF, riding a Phantom. So far nobody laugh yet....

Slowly the culture here is changing.... perhaps last time more people will associate FF with racer-wannabes and rich people... nowadays it's more associaed with safety first.

You would look even funnier with a neck brace or mummified head if you got into a accident wearing a cheapo lid....

[StingRhea]

quite common on phantoms~

If small sportbike wear full-face I don't care liao. Because even if the bike is small, it is still fast, and easily can get into serious accidents. But if the bike is small and they are not that fast like Vespa wear full-face, I will laugh myself out.

Then you must be laughing yourself out quite often, with all the cub-kia riding M'sians wearing FF and more and more FF wearing Phantom/Scooter riders?

 

I also didn't know a person chin + jaw becomes as hard as steel at speeds below 60~70km/hr.... wow!

Very good info for all bikers.

It convinced me to buy a FF.
