Well, I'm thinking of them as a replacement for the mirrors on my blast.

The stock mirrors are difficult to see through with the frequent vibration of the single-cylinder blast, plus they have this annoying mounting that you cannot adjust without a couple of wrenches! The mirror itself literally only adjusts up or down, and the horizontal angle of the bars frequently comes loose and you spend half your riding time trying to get the darn thing to stay put!

Ah well, we'll see :twisted:

That helmet looks great! I took a glance at the site, but couldn't find any mention of whether it was Snell certified or not.

Those bug eyes are pretty funny lookin'. But I'm curious -- let us know how it turns out for you.


That helmet looks hardcore -- I'd like to try that sucker on and see what kind of vision I'd get out the back.

Don't need any added distractions when riding. Mirrors that come with the bike are enough.
