Ok I bought a new helmet
« on: July 28, 2007, 10:01:04 AM »
I broke down and went full face, that way I can
have an open casket funeral.  ;) ;)

It's a Z 1R Strike, you know, the cheap one rated the highest ;D ;D

Fits my head pretty good, real good actually, and I can see
much better than I thought I'd be able too!
Only rub is the strap, I have pretty prominent jaw bones
and the stitching on the strap is right on my jaw bone.
They must have used wire to stitch it with. I'll have to put some sort
of cover over that part of the strap.

Good move RM :)  Did you colour match it to your bike?

I have the same helmet.  With silver and black graphics to match my bike.
The fit is good, the cooling is not.  It fogs easily also... but it is a nice helmet for the $$$.

Hey Lake long time no see!!!

Yea, I color matched to the Ducati (oops I shouldn't have said that)  ;D

I figured silver might be cooler in the summer, silver goes good with red to right:)
I guess I need another and I can paint it to match the Honda eh??

By the way, when are you riding down this way, yur beers getting hot.  ;D ;D
