What did you do to your bike today?

[Madrunner]

Lol that's funny. My wife has an Arai , the only brand to fit her melon and it has the most ridiculous visor release mechanism compared to either my system 6 lid or and shoei.

Chap who works for me rides every day of the year, racks up stupid mileage (bike has 130k n counting) he has an Arai and detests the visor mechanism. Forever breaking side panels.

Just can't get on with them but the wife swears by it for comfort.

[fabiamk2SE]

Me too, since I wouldn't wear any other brand. I'd trust a Shoei without drop down visor, but Arai fit me better, and Shoei's visor mechanism is pants.

Ever wondered how you could possible irritate people when all you do is be negative about their possessions.. Which they incidently seem to quite like themselves?

Im happy your Arai fits you.

They used to fiy my dad until their shape changed. They went to a Japanese shape iirc.

Don't listen to striple. He's not a biker just reads all the magazines and polishes his toy on Sunday mornings lol

Rumour has it though.. Once upon a time on a sunny sunday in July. He actually rode it..

But soon came back as much to his disgust, a cloud appeared in the sky.

Nah not in this country. I reckon he pushed it out the garage, checked himself out in the mirrors then pushed it back into the garage. Racked up 2.7 miles this year but looking guuuuuuuuuuud.

[fabiamk2SE]

Then sat with a pint of water and read on the internet about a guy who once put his through the revs ..when its not in neutral..

Such an exciting life isnt it.

[Madrunner]

Lol. Do we know that the bike we've seen pictures of is firstly his and secondly not a 1/10th scale model ??

Before we get too involved in a heated discussion about helmet safety and which one is best.  If you have a proper accident your helmet may stay on your head and it may stay in one piece but it will not prevent you from receiving life threatening injuries.  Obviously there are a lot of injuries that will kill you and being knocked on the head isn't the only one.

Striple I see you either missed the bit I have highlighted above or are just ignoring it.  If it wasn't clear to you I will say again that although your head may well stay on one piece other injuries on your body may well prove to be life threatening.  So having your super dooper helmet may not make any difference.

 

Truth be told I am tired of the constant arguing from you with all and any posts on here so I will let you do your thing and in future I will do my own but I shall refrain from commenting on anything you have posted as I just don't see the point.

 

To the rest of you Guys who post in here I apologise for this but I don't come onto a forum for pointless arguments so I won't be contributing as much in here.

[fabiamk2SE]

Chris.

Theres only 5 of us regular posters on here anyway. Me, you, Madrunner, Mattchelski and BO60BYS.

I for one rate your input and would much like you to come on a meetwith the rest of us.

I do feel we'd be losing a valueable member if you lessened your input.

You know how me and Madrunner feel about the nipple situation.

So hows about we all carry on as normal but ignore all his future posts?

I dont come here to argue either.. But im not afraid to say it how it is. Certainly not to him.

[StripleR675]

If it wasn't clear to you I will say again that although your head may well stay on one piece other injuries on your body may well prove to be life threatening. So having your super dooper helmet may not make any difference.

And conversely, there's every chance that it will, as I and many, many other people can attest to. You said a helmet "will not prevent you from receiving life threatening injuries", which is exactly what they can, and often do, and is a damn good reason for wearing the best one that you can afford, and not compromising it with gimmicky design features. No, you weren't clear - if you'd said that a helmet may not necessarily prevent life threatening injuries, then that would have been clearer, but the fact is that head injury is the number one cause of motorcycle fatalities (followed by blunt chest trauma), and numerous riders have their lives saved by helmets every day.

If my reply caused offence, it wasn't meant to, it was simply a discussion of your previous post.

So why the snide little Pm then? For someone who doesn't come here to argue, you spend a lot of time attempting to turn discussions into argument with your repeated playground personal digs...

The pm is what it is. Read it.

Wondering wtf your problem is.

You seem to purposely come here to try n upset people. I dont get it?

[StripleR675]

They've never used only one shell shape on UK market models, different models fit differently. Oriental market models do have differed he'll shapes, to suit their heads.

You are aware that chris is ex-police though? So has actually seen these things in person, not just looked at statistics on a computer screen?

If so, youll understand why i doubt he'll be responding tbh.

Is that supposed to be one?

You sir, wouldnt last 5 minutes in the real world. Probably why you hide behind the screen then.

Full of ****e.

So basically you dont have an answer.

Youre just intent on doing so.

just so you know.. We all feel the same way. Nobody likes your feable argumentative replies at everything. Its a positive forum.. Theres no room for such constantly negative people such as your yourself. You dont get points for attempts at shooting peoples hard earned down.

With the cold chill running through this normally enjoyable thread, I switched on my heated grips ...............truly it was chilly riding home yesterday.

Come on fellahs.......when you get to my age you will realise life's too short.
