New Helmet!

[Roadster Renovations]

This would be sweet and probably worth the $2K.

The one thing I love about riding my high tech machine is wearing a low tech helmet. While it protects me, I don't have to worry about multiple screens, flashing lights, and the batteries dying. I love technology, but there have to be limits.this helmet is cool, but way too complicated for me.

I would buy it based on the girl's sexy voice alone... I'm a sucker for the British accent, especially when it comes to marketing/selling things. It's like the mythological Siren calling for me, lol :bowdown:

It's a sweet package... but aren't helmets supposed to be replaced every three to five years? :dontknow:

I keep some "Low-Tech" guidance systems available on my bike: the Missus! :thumbup:
(And I haven't had to replace her yet!)

Another helmet

I just saw this on the web this morning; maybe the technology will become more widely used. hyea:

True .. but if it is sold by BRP it will be around 4,500

That one looks a little less "techie", with the blind spot view. I think that one would be better for me...

Very Cool

I really think that if this was an affordable item, or I won the lottery, it would be an ideal type of helmet to own. I mean one of our biggest fears is not being seen and our response to that fear is to have our head on a swivel, this takes the swivel out of it and allows us to keep our eyes on the road, and monitor all around us. And solar powered, now that is cool. Hey speaking of cool, I wonder if the solar power could power a tiny air conditioner!:roflblack:

 

[PrairieSpyder]

I wonder what it weighs, with all that tech installed. :dontknow:

 

[Bob Denman]

While I would really like to agree with you; I'd rather trust my own abilities to maintain situational awareness, and use my mirrors, brain, and eyeballs properly...
Trusting in Technology? I think not!

But

You would still be doing that. The heads up display and alerts just add information to what you have now. Look no one has ever developed a computer that can process information, and can react quicker than the one between your ears. Amazing capabilities, this just adds additional I put to allow that computer to respond quickly, and efficiently!:yes:

Tech ain't heavy!

I wonder what it weighs, with all that tech installed. :dontknow:

What they add in tech gear would not add much weight, I would be more concerned at how it effects the crashworthyness of the helmet. Would it pass DOT, or ECE, or Snell!

interesting to see, but too busy for my likes

One thing I didn't like was the red light and tone when a car got within 320 feet of you from behind. That would sux in rush hour traffic. haha! They will probably have some ways to modify the notifications.

i would be all over this thing if they didnt cost so much. This looks nicer than the Skully which they have been selling for i think around 1500 for over a year and a half and STILL HAVE NOT SHIPPED A SINGLE HELMET. Nice of them to take the couple million in sales and invest it while everyone hopes that eventually they will get a helmet. I think the rear view would be awesome, to keep from having to look over your shoulder or see people approaching from behind could prevent a lot of accidents. I think the lights and dings when a car gets near would suck in traffic so hope that is either speed sensitive or you can turn it off. I do hate how much they charge for these devices that could potentially save peoples lives. At 2000 you could buy a full spyder RT or 10 helmets. I could buy only about 4 for the cost of my sport bike. Hopefully they will get down to a reasonable range before im too old to use them or dead.

That helmet is amazing just like the new f-22 helmet $400,000

 

[sduskin]

looks like a knock-off of the Skully AR-1

Only difference I can really tell is the rear view camera has a 30 degree wider field of view.

I failed at GoPro 101 so am thinking the helmet is a bit beyond my current capabilities or my desire to learn something new. :thumbup:

We are going to get new helmets 2016 season--and I am thinking Nolan again.

Strikes me as being more visual load on the brain creating a more distracted driving experience. We have enough problem with distracted driving as it is now.
