That helmet is shaped almost IDENTICALLY to my old VR-1 KBC lid, right down to the vents.... mine cost me $200 CND.

You can but kits to make most any visor accept tear-offs, Verm. Not as cool maybe, but exactly as effective. But I know this is important to you, so.....

And you need tear-offs like you need an ignition interupter and race tires.....

And you do know that tear-offs will scratch the under-lying visor in a very short time, don't you? So you will be needing replacement shields at an accellerated rate.

How many riders useing tear-offs do you see on the street? About the same number of them as guys wearing long, red scarves. This should tell you something, although, I doubt you'll twig it......
No Witnesses.... :shifty:

There's 'deviating from the norm' and there's 'poser, look how cool I am'..... and there is a difference between them. :roll: Looking like you are Dashit is not the same as being Dashit.....

Have you ever considered some Self-Esteme courses? I really think you might benifit from something like that.

then why do you post all these pics and tell us about all of this stuff. If you do it for yourself then you wouldnt care what we think and wouldnt lay yourself out there for people to say what they think, you might post ride pics or bike pics, but not all this stuff all the time. just me :twocents:
