Different helmets have different fittings and different "Feel" to it. U gotta go down and see it yourself. U may hear it "Calling"... I know wat it feels to be called. "IT" is still haunting me now... Helmy, testi and razi would know. But keep it shut k guys. Secret... hahahah... The rear shocks is a good replacement also.

 

so hmm is there any FF which is good and cost less then $550?can intro ma lol

Not say i want to hide behind the screen la. Bike still running in, so 'refraining' from joining up for outings etc. I'm running it soft, slow and proper.

 

Well anyhow up to 1000 clicks, so should be good to go. More or less.

 

Anyhow you've got to try out LOTS of helmets to get the ONE. Heh.

 

Happened that I found the Shark S800 at MotoWorld the best fitting ever. Even better than some Arai's I tried at Chiap Lee.

 

My advice is to go to those shops which have easily available display models. Chiap Lee, MotoWorld, Regina, Chong Aik, to name a few. 550 can get you a pretty good lid.

Exactly. Try it then u know it. I may tell u Arai may be good for me but others may feel SUOMY is better and such. Different people different heads mah. Different "Feel"

[WaRRioR83]

hey wanted to ask, cos i cannot make up my mind hor, for riding gloves right, u all buy the shorter type of gloves or the longer one ar? cos i cannot make up my mind, hmm hope u all know what i mean.

 

There is always the pro's n con's. Gotta compare them both to your liking. My preference is short gloves. Plus synthethic material. Gives me a better feel and grip. I am not referring those FOX motoX gloves with rubber and all but those with tuff knuckle protectors. Well it did worked well when i was dragged the other time. But its not rain resistant.

 

Those long ones are gives better protection and wraps above the wrist area as well. For me its hard to shove my big hands into them. Plus imagine what u gotta go thru at the Customs. Hotter as well.

ok thx alot haha getting the short one ba lol

[Seraph]

again own preference la. Or rather you learn by trial and error. I like full-length, gauntlet type leather. So the cuffs of my jacket are covered. Don't want bees to fly in :S.

[nur90]

[dinie]

Haiz....itchy already...how long can get the pipes approved? hahahah.

 

Juz now kena poison already. Freak was the worst hit. Hopefully the "anti-venom" kicks in quickly. hahahahha

emailed Kenji already. i think he's analyzing the data collected.

 

Hey guys, been ghosting in the thread for quite some time and now then only decided to intro myself as a GSR rider. Heh.

 

Anyway HJC helmets are so-so in my opinion. I think the visor is abit flexy and I don't like the fit, but thats me anyhow. Go try out a few then decide which one suits you best.

are you a girl? you seem very familiar.. hmmm.

 

Yeah... Anti venom kena 10 doses liao. The itching is overwhelming. Need job first... hahahahahah

what kind of job are we talking about here? the abit abit kind?

 

Exactly. Try it then u know it. I may tell u Arai may be good for me but others may feel SUOMY is better and such. Different people different heads mah. Different "Feel"

i prefer LAB racing. for lacing use only.

s4 to me like very low.. GSR is just nice. not too high like Speed Triple and not too low like CB750. collect money from who? you ah long ah? lol.. unless you mean saving money lar. take you time bro... or sis.

1.72 is tall enuff.. well, your height is not really a matter.. you can go Garage Sale to check check the GSR on sale there..

watch this: why we need a leather protective gear..

[IvikaRazI]

The best is kangaroo leather...the price also best. hehehe.

 

Anyway its better to have protection then to have none. It does soften the blow. It reduces the chance to get serious or life threatening injuries.

[jazzy7932]

Yea i'm going to get a FF soon, was wondering IS HJC good ma? thoese top end type. any feedback from u guys?

 

 

Shoei X-11...the one to buy.cools ur head while riding.u can literally feel the wind blow thru ur head. Dun save on helmet. No doubt its expensive, i can use for very long time. Arai not bad, but i heard its quite uncomfy...HJC,..sorry no comments..

ya, i read that, the leather act as our skin, instead of we got our abrasion on our skin, the "kangaroo" or whatever animal it is.... I think Cow hide also another popular leather for our bike protective gear..

Cow hide is popular because it is readily available since so many people eat cows...so its reletively cheap to make. There is Kangaroo leather. It is not made up. MotoGP riders do wear them. They are lighter and tougher than cow hide.

wow..those are damn good ads (+ scooter one). Do you guys actually use leathers while riding?

 

For me its minimum leather gloves + jeans + boots. Open face or Full face depending on situation.

Usually i go around with sandals, jeans and normal helmets. I'd prefer boxers and helmet thou... Confirm traffic will slow down jus to let me thru.
