Thanks OldGuy, I was wondering how well HiViz matched up w/ KawiGreen
I've been eyeing this helmet as well.. you can always get some 3M black reflective tape to add designs/patterns of your own to steeze things up a little Good stuff... I wish Icon or A* would come out with some stylish Hi-Viz yellow sportbike jackets |

I saw Old Guy's a little bit ago and had to go find it for myself. I'm very tempted to upgrade this year. I don't care how it matches up with anything, bright is good. This seems to take bright to a new level

Ryan, I agree. For me, matching wasn't even a consideration before placing my order.

First Gear makes/made a mesh jacket that isn't the African Safari style like the TourMaster. But as far as I know those are the only two with HiViz yellow.

Check out the helmet Valentino Rossi used last night for the Qatar night-time MotoGP tests:

If someone is stupid enough to hit you while you ride you know they can't be able to say "I couldn't see you!"

Wanna bet? While it might be highly embarrassing to run OG down while he's wearing such eye-catching fashions, it certainly isn't impossible for some of the people who are granted a driving license these days.

Actually, it just occured to me that this could be a real boon in an accident case. The judge or jury would be hard pressed to say that you were not clearly visible. A lot of drivers (usually because they are on their cell phone) say the rider is not visible. Not the case with those colors.

It would mean they were BLIND!!! Which, sadly, could be a valid defense in this case. "Judge, his clothes were so bright that they temporarily blinded me! That's why I hit him!"
Seriously though, that's one sweet looking helmet. People should be able to see you for sure with that outfit. Travis

Hey this popped in my head a couple days ago.
http://skullskins.net/ I'm pretty sure these guys can do high visibility colors if one wanted something that sticks out more. |

Joe that is one sick site they have. You would really mess with some cagers minds in a helmet with their work on it. Red and Blue leathers with a spider man helmet.

My buddy has one.
He had a white helmet but he wanted black,and red in it to match his bike. He was gonna have it airbrushed. I said it would look like one of those T-shirts you can get from a county fair with ur name on it then I told him about the site. He sent in a custom design with the custom template they have.They made it up for him and that was it. These are kinda nice because it protects your helmets original finish. And if you dont have a tinted shield,the shield cover reduces a little light. I've been planning on getting one for myself. Just have'nt got around to it yet. This thread popped in my head one morning and I thought it might be helpful for those interested in becoming more visible for less cost. They'll probably do any design you want. The Template is pretty intimidating because it's wierd to work with, but if you call or email em they'll help you work something out. |

Thanks... but I've gotten so used to the ease and functionality of the one piece aerostich suit, I'm not a fan of the separate jacket and riding pants combo idea any longer and would find it difficult for me to use anything else.

I told you that color scheme was dangerous. Somehow it warped the space/time continuum and shot you forward a few weeks. If you still had the hi-vis stich you may have been warped right out of our known existence. Be careful with that thing!

It is ok Alex I have countered the warped space/time continuum by running around my room in circles in my All black helmet and now I feel a peace in the universe.

As you might say but when the warped space/time continuum was cleared this is what we ALL saw...apparently your cloaking device has gone awry showing us once and for all that as suspected, you are one of the MOHAWK GANG!!
