I took my bike to the dragstrip last nite at firebird raceway az, the guy failed me because I had a Snell 2000 helmet and not a new 2005 or newer...arghhhh so anyways I showed up there in full leather suit and got shot back on my hayabusa. They were real nice though. And I guess all my older helmets are done? The next day I bought a 450.00$ Shoei at cycle gear and jesus that took a chunk out of my wallet for this helmet and that was just the cheapest i could afford but its all snell2010 approved.... now I gotta shake my leg till next weeks drags come along...!
