Nope, sorry. Not much help there. I've had good experiences with Scorpion in that dept though. Helmets are weird to recommend because they're all different shapes with different fits. Get the one that fits best. Always buy a helmet in person so you can try them on. Not Internet order.

choneofakind · August 14th, 2013, 04:39 AM

I apparently don't notice/need heavy venting, because I also ride around in a zipped up textile (not mesh) when it's 90 outside and I forget to open my vents. So I'm likely not the one to ask about the vents in helmets.

Nice

Went for a nice ride today, well yesterday now. Perfect weather 70 degrees with a few clouds but mostly sunny. Rode out to Shelby Forest state park with a friend and I admired the mighty Mississippi River.

I have younger cousins and nephews who think I am actually a Jedi. They think I am gonna hurt myself with my "litserbers". It's fun to keep the act going, sadly one day they will grow up...

And become like me and buy expensive lightsabers lolol.

Yep! Dainese Knee Guard Type V. I've banged my knees and shins enough times at 1mph just from bumping into things, to know I would be in a world of pain if my knees hit something at 60mph. So it seemed necessary for me haha. Since I don't have leathers with knee protection yet.

Yeah! I actually really like the look of it..cause I'm one of those guys that walks around in skinny jeans all the time.. So it looks sleek IMO. Though I am planning on getting a pair of leathers with knee protection myself, it would be nice to pickup some shin/knee guards.

csmith12 · January 20th, 2014, 09:57 PM

I need a set of those. Any time I get anywhere near my trailer hitch, I take a knock to the shin.

Haha, that feeling though when you completely ruin your knee on a trailer hitch!

csmith12 · January 20th, 2014, 09:59 PM

Hey, you should know about shin impacts, you do martial arts. How many times you and your sparring partner hit shins, or elbows the the shins?

I wear skinny jeans as well, and the knee guards fit great over them. No bunching up or anything.

I took 4 years of TKD. I too know that awful feeling. Even with occasional padding, sometimes it was a nightmare.

Where do I get one of those?! May the force be with you!

LittleRedNinjette · January 21st, 2014, 03:28 AM

Here's a great shot of my boyfriend after he unloaded his first bike, haven't got one on the Buell yet.

Only have one

(does not look like StarWars kid lolol). It's video practicing the Plum blossom spin. A lot of chinese sword martial art techniques carry over pretty well. No shame in being a nerd, because it's fun as hell to fight with those things. Thick polycarbonate (used in BulletProof glass). Aircraft-grade aluminum hilts. And the green one's LEDs are classified as class 2 lasers, making them stupid bright. They aren't some cheap sabers from target hahah.

The blue one I got from Ultrasabers, the green one I got from Genesis Custom Sabers.

he looks really thrilled!

csmith12 · January 21st, 2014, 08:42 PM

Is that you? And that pic is sideways.

According to the majority of active forum members, there is not enough smiles in that pic.

JohnnyBravo · January 21st, 2014, 08:47 PM

Yea that was me... Stupid pics just post however they please

I rarely smile in pics unless I have a reason to smile, just because there is a pic being taken isn't really a good enough reason. Just because there is a camera or someone says cheese it's no given that I'm gonna smile.
