Good looking..!!

Nice looking helmet the idea of rear view is also a plus. Would like to try one out because that price is in pounds..!!

Didn't look into it far enough to know whether it will be offered on this side of the pond.

DOT approved?

Nolans have the flip up feature--but not the rear view part.

Seems like a great concept but I imagine that initially it will be odd. For me, as I become a better rider certain moves or actions have become routine like how I continuously check my mirrors. Adding this step would throw me off a bit at first. It is like my floorboards, although the pegs were not as comfortable I had gotten used to we're my foot would be on each side. I had to really take it slow when I got the boards because I didn't know we're I wanted my foot to go.

I got to look at one up close in Chicago a couple years ago at the Owners Event. Dol had brought one from across the pond with her. It was pretty cool, but I don't believe they've been approved here in the states yet.

:shocked: so here I am; wondering why the traffic is going the wrong way, and I appear to be moving in reverse!! :yikes:

pps: Forgot to turn off the rearview feature... AGAIN! :gaah: :roflblack: :joke:

I believe that it's fairly obvious that these don't work too well with a passenger sitting behind you
.....just a thought.

 

[Bob Denman]

:shocked: Actually... I wonder if they'd work well for a rider who's carrying a favorite pet behind them?

Unless you want to look at your lovely bride sitting behind you.

I would have to have bifocals put on the top half of my glasses rather than the bottom half. :shocked:
