while researching, found a HJC FS-15/FG-15 which i like very much. price below $300 too. not too damaging on the wallet. gonna get it from motoworld after pay day. :angel:

 

btw, i wear glasses will it hamper me from wearing a FF helmet comfortably? i hope not...

 

but you must understand that you will feel the pain if you get stopped by a tp who is all out to look for trouble...

 

a little adjustment on the specs should make it easy enough to put on and off... ha and most of us are here are 四眼仔s

tedious...? maybe... only to a small extent...

 

I think the penalty is $50 dollars...

 

I know some riders would wear a balaclava, some would wear skull caps...

 

I wear terrorist bandana

i really find this law super duper lame... are the TP saying snell/dot's destructive testing not as stringent as psb's? even a cheapo $25 has a psb sticker... wonder if can just grab a sticker from a cheapo helmet and paste it on my FF helmet...

its too difficult to transfer the sticker over...

 

yea I have seen cheap helmets with psb cracked into pieces when the rider fall... to hell with psb...

oh... ha you should try get some off days...

[thenation]

The PSB issue has been raised over and over again in the forum haha. Honestly, its a rule that can be ignored; don't let it affect your choice of helmets.

 

For specs, please be sure to try on the helmet and make sure it fits properly. You may like the design of the helmet but there's no guarantee it'll like you haha.

[loved]

lol! 14 days of annual leaves is so precious. so cannot anyhow apply one lol.

yeah, fit is definitely most important. it should have the snug snug feeling when put on right? w/o any pressure points on any part of my head when the helmet is on?

after you put it on, trying shaking your head... it shouldn't feel too loose...

Why should the government subsidise petrol? It doesn't make economic or social sense. There are things that would be nice to have, like cheap petrol, but someone's going to have to pay for it...and the bulk of people in singapore don't drive or ride so why should they bear the cost?

[kmax]

try Africa Twin with 52 liter tank... go in reserve... pump full everyweek

[ahcaibiker]

Now we know why Singapore is one of the most expensive places (still getting more ex) to live in among Asia yet having one of the lowest wages. it's just pay and pay... it's sad but it's an reality we have to accept...

 

 

Its the lower income group that gets hit hardest...

the subsidy... is political... malaysian government wanted to remove it a long time ago... but they would probably lose power if they did that...

well... don't grimace over this... each city has its pros and cons... and personally I believe the lower income group here is pretty alright
