First hour long ride made to class!
First hour long ride made to class!
So today was the first day I took my Ninja 250 to Brooklyn which is about an hour ride for me. Today, the entire highway was blocked off because a car had an accident but luckily for me, I had my bike lane splitting and I was able to get up close and personal to the accident which helped alleviate about an hour off my ride had I taken my car. It was a really good feeling to know that I wouldn't have missed class but man, after the ride back home, the sides of my head was killing me. I guess I don't have a shoei type of head, mebbe I should go Arai =\ Oh and also, I never knew how bumpy the rodes were until I took my motorcycle there =\.

helmet is either too small or you haven't worn it for 20+ hours. It takes time for the foam to start to "pack in" and fit to your head, after a while of wearing it, it "should" feel better.

I think it's just too small. I've ridden with the helmet for a while now but only the temple's of my head hurt after about 45 mins into a ride. Also, quick question. When you guys ride, does it sort of constrict the blood flow to your hands by any chance? I noticed that after a ride to and from school, my hands would appear rather blueish in color and maybe it's just me? Oh, and this is a stupid question but everyone's seat of their motorcycle is suppose to get warm during along ride right? loll and we're not talking about a fart in the seat kinda warmth but a good heating up of if you will =\ but damn I have to admit, I luv riding to and from school. Parking is so much damn easier and traffic is a breeze =D
