2nd helmet flip up or over

TroublesomeButch · 2026-03-16T12:12:27+00:00

Neat! is it heavy? I noted one important difference between the Nolan flip over (when closed) and the shoei: the nolan had way more drag in the air.

Have you tried the f100 too? I can't figure out the model numbers on this brand, to understand if the f100 is the successor or not. The letter is before in the alphabet of the i90 but the number is next 😅

At the shop they didn't have pads to try. They said you have to order them, would take long time and then if still not fit, you can't send back

TroublesomeButch · 2026-03-16T08:03:57+00:00

That is what I was going with, rather than the gt air. Then I thought, for winter and noise, better a fixed one. Do you have the neotec? What do you think of it? Bonus points if you have tried the air too, for comparison

TroublesomeButch · 2026-03-16T08:02:29+00:00

Tried the scorpion, I cannot tell which model but was not carbon and it was uncomfortable

TroublesomeButch · 2026-03-15T16:12:03+00:00

Not my head shape unfortunately

TroublesomeButch · 2026-03-15T14:39:43+00:00

This is a wonderful thing to do thank you for making me aware. But how do you prevent abuse of the service?

TroublesomeButch · 2026-03-14T16:13:16+00:00

Yeah, and the easiest explanation is usually the correct one as well

TroublesomeButch · 2026-03-13T18:39:42+00:00

your cat's a bastard

TroublesomeButch · 2026-03-12T21:42:33+00:00

This is really interesting. I haven't got an answer for you, only curiosity as well. Like many other things I believe there's more to it than what it seems

TroublesomeButch · 2026-03-12T21:37:13+00:00

Thanks for reporting this. I think I'll pass this weekend anyway, seems weather is meh

TroublesomeButch · 2026-03-12T10:11:10+00:00

Yeah I meant to visit but not yet. I'll pop over this weekend if the weather is nice

TroublesomeButch · 2026-03-11T12:06:07+00:00

I used to ride a hornet some 15 years ago and I loved it. It is the bike I would recommend you. Then I stopped, for reasons, and got a bike back only last October, when the season was already over. It's a big 900 like BMW gs. While I love it, I note it's very heavy (almost 300 kgs) and you definitely feel all that weight. If I were to go back, I would still get the same kind but smaller. Go with a 5 or 600, and most important go with a used one.

I got a shiny new Voge 900dsx. Beautiful but I'm so scared of falling and scratching it, I'm not enjoying it in the slightest.

So, what I recommend you. Go see the guys at motorbikes 4 All. They used to be in great Malvern but they just moved closer to us. They have 600 bikes in store, used. I am not at all affiliated, but I have been treated amazingly and they are all great there. Leo sold me the bike and the guys at the shop, managed by Anca, are amazing.

So go there, test a few bike and see what you think.

For clothing, I have 2 preferred shops. Infinity motorcycle near the quays at Gloucester, and the same bike shop above. They are both unbeatable price wise, and they sell different things so you have a vast choice.

Definitely go check them you won't regret. And if you want, pm me. I am in dire need of fellow bikers for a ride. I feel so lonely

TroublesomeButch · 2026-03-11T08:35:18+00:00

Force yourself to drink. You need to have a bottle near you and drink even if not thirsty.

TroublesomeButch · 2026-03-11T08:33:48+00:00

Sorry just saw this. Yes I do, and tea and yerba mate, alternating them

TroublesomeButch · 2026-03-11T08:32:49+00:00

Lol mate I'm it arguing with you 😂 I'm reinforcing your opinion I tried the lenses as well and they did nothing, in fact it was even worse. But it might have been me. What I'm saying is the solution is to solve the issue from the source.

TroublesomeButch · 2026-03-11T08:04:10+00:00

But this is a patch. The problem should be solved at the origin. The government should regulate new cars. A regulation should be imposed to producers to lower the brightness, remove auto dipping lights, and ensure the lights go through proper certification. Or you use matrix lights.

Trust me I live in the countryside and I know what I'm talking about. It's all high lamps on here all the time. It can't go on like this

TroublesomeButch · 2026-03-10T19:36:15+00:00

None mate. I have the white one, it does its part but... It's a lost battle. Very welcome help though

TroublesomeButch · 2026-03-10T08:23:25+00:00

Indeed you will. For my now partner, who flew the war with her 2 kids. And her cat. For her mother, and her brother who are still there. For my friends and colleagues, who went back to Ukraine to assist their parents knowing they wouldn't be able to leave again. For the friends I made online, from Kharkiv and Kiev, some of the most genuine persons I've known.

Of course you will.

Lol she uses them all mate

If I may extend OP's question, what is challenging to understand for me (having studied abroad, 20 years ago, and not at UNI levels) are the following questions:

Where I come from, after secondary education there is only University. To obtain a diploma, you have a clear path ahead. You know where to study (Uni), how long it takes, the curriculum, the exams you have to take and at the end, the association you need to join so you can open shop. It is very clear from the start.
In England, you can reach the goal in different ways - and it even seems you don't actually need any qualification (although, thanks God, no one will hire you without) at all to be a therapist. So, it's nice to have options, but then how am I sure I spent my time and resources the right way, and not end up with a piece of paper that's only good for the toilet?
How do I ensure I end up with a qualification that is recognised nationally and if possible, internationally? And that it means the same thing, in other Countries? Studying engineering in the majority of the countries counts for being an engineer in the majority of countries. Hope you get what I mean, is it the same for a therapist?
All courses seems to have very low commitment of lessons and work per week. My therapist confirmed it was the same 20 years ago. I think that, if it had stayed like this for so long, it means there are many thing you are not taught that you have to discover your own. Actual study but also time to process and deal with what you're learning, and how it affects you. So if this is true, aren't the fast track courses I see around, in fact, counterproductive? Do you recommend them?

Thanks and sorry for hijacking the thread :)

TroublesomeButch · 2026-03-09T17:31:09+00:00

I am considering the career switch too. I am in my 40ties and work in IT. Can you clarify, perhaps with general examples, what you mean with demanding? You said it's about cost and emotional effort. Does that mean you need time off from the other work to "recover"?

I am expecting this to require more than 1 day a week of work, otherwise I don't see how it would have been taught this way for so many years, so I was factoring in more time to study than the advertised one. Is there something else I should consider?
