As a glasses wearer, you've peaked my interest. How does the helmet do while riding with the front flipped up? Is this even an option or is the flip up just...
It's great around town with the face up, I haven't tried it on the interstate; and I'm not quite sure I'd want to. One of the things that I really like is...
Just a couple other data points. I have owned the Nolan Trend (100 or 150, can't remember which) flip face, about $150, and it actually worked pretty well....

My current helmet has the same forehead pressure point. At high speed I could hear the foam being compressed by my forehead. I just doubled up a soft piece...
I have a somewhat related question. After trying on many helmets I decided on the SHOEI RF900. Feels and looks great for the first hour or so but then begins...
Sounds like your head is the wrong shape for an RF-900. I have one, and I could wear it a whole day and it is as comfortable when I take it off as when I put...

something to note: the nolan design is the only one in which the chinbar is mounted on a cam pivot instead of a simple pivot point. this means that when you...
I have had that same problem with every Shoei helmet I've ever worn. My solution? Go with an Arai. I can wear those all day long with no pressure points...
... I've spent many hours trying on helmets and have decided that there are 3 brands that fit my particular head: Arai, HJC, and Vega. The rest, especially...
... Different helmets typically fit different shaped heads. My Nolan did exactly what you describe, my Schuberth Concept did not. Try em on. You can also use...
The Concept, when I first tried it on, felt like it would give me a headache. Surprise Surprise! It broke in very nicely and is now more comfortable than my...
Well, Snell is an entirely voluntary certification, so it's also likely the manufacturers just never submitted the helmets for testing. The Schuberth does...
I recently read and article from a man who contacted SNELL about the testing of flipup helmets, and the official response from SNELL is that they have NOT yet...
... That's basically what I'm building. I have a RAM mount sitting on the bench, but it doesn't do exactly what I need it to. They say that RAM mounts can be...
I am looking for an exploded view of the S-2 fairing, does anyone have one they could scan and sendme? I'v receive one for the S-3 from Steve Matthews(much...
... I can probably get a copy from my local dealer, or definately from my less than local dealer. I'll try and remember to do it tomorrow. If you need any...
Anybody find any S3 license plate relocator brackets yet? That huge piece of plastic is annoying to look at, and I don't feel like making my own. Luke Sankey ...

My speedo used to work fine all the time. Then, a couple weeks ago on a ride, it stopped working. Simple story so far... But then the other day on the way to...

... Mine did the same thing. It was a bad speedo. It's possible the pickup has gotten some debris on it. It's magnetic and you can check it youreself. It's...

Hi, Karl, I've been a lurker for a while but this is my first post, hope it is of some use to you. If you check your inbox, I have sent the appropriate pages...
Hi Luke; Just joined the group so my reply may be old news. Have you tried American Sportbike? They have an online available catalog in PDF format. Even if...
I know that you said you don't feel like making your own, but if you want to relocate the plate on your S3, that is what you are going to have to do. Since the...
Thanks guys, yeah, I have looked before, but I looked again at ASB, and I was eyeing the one you speak of. I shyed away from it before because it said "X1"...
