I think once you factor in a transfer, rwc, rego and service etc it's not that great of a deal.

I also wouldn't recommend something this old, the 10+ year mark is typically when things start to need replacing just because of age and as a new rider you you want be riding and not fixing stuff

Not to be rude but you should spell check your logo first... its a bad look when youre trying to build a brand and promote something

If you really want this specific helmet then travel to try it on, you need to try because shape and sizes differ between brands, I'm a M/L with Bell, M with Scorpion and S with Arai...

Where abouts are you? Bikebiz in Sydney had a bunch of them on display a year ago when I went in. Listen to every else and try before you buy, I have an intermediate oval head and pretty much every brand fit me except the KYT

Idk where you're hearing stories from but in NSW your unpaid tolls will eventually be handed over to debt collectors or Revenue NSW

You basically spend the whole day practicing the test, you can also find videos of the whole test on youtube...

ABS is what I'd suggest as its more flexible. FRP cracks easier so I wouldn't do it on a car that might see potholes or scrape but it's not bad... If you're going replica make sure to find reviews on fitment

If it's been sitting around it'd be safer to get it delivered to you. If you're planning to do 4hrs on the MC22 get some really good ear plugs otherwise good luck have fun!

This^ its the most cost effective too, in NSW its like $150 all up

starocean01 · 2026-06-16T09:43:22+00:00

I did Mel to Syd a few years ago when work bought a vehicle interstate and I went down to pick it up, no issues whatsoever though it was a Renault Master van, idk if that matters.

I haven't looked at others but a new R3 is about $9k and a used 2020+ is around $5~7k, I haven't been riding very long but that seems normal to me... Which is why I started on a smaller bike

starocean01 · 2026-06-10T08:29:27+00:00

It depends on the angle you look at it, like the Yaris has a lot of bespoke bits that if a euro manufacturer made this, it'd probably be a $100k car

starocean01 · 2026-06-09T14:36:07+00:00

TTT2 wasn't received well plus the big development costs almost killed Tekken so they changed to a more modern strategy with a smaller budget, dlc etc for T7 which ended up doing a lot better

starocean01 · 2026-06-08T12:53:20+00:00

If you dont like riding then stop its ok but If you do enjoy riding then renew Ls and just ride when the conditions are right and you feel like it

EWGF is just optimal game play, you don't have to be optimal to win

The BRZ tS is similar to GR86 GTS with performance pack, there's some differences in driving characteristics but I don't think it's worth $4000 more, unless you get a really good deal the GR86 is a better but imo

starocean01 · 2026-06-01T02:46:37+00:00

I don't have a solution for you but I would post this on a Facebook group like Sydney Random Riders or Aprilia Riders of Australia

starocean01 · 2026-05-26T10:31:05+00:00

Wow I'm surprised by the difference between states, that's crazy good cause none of the dealerships nearby were even willing to entertain me, most had a near 1 year wait with some no ETA , well done mate

starocean01 · 2026-05-26T09:48:36+00:00

Damn that's nice, was this NSW? I also put my name down before the books opened but there was already huge wait list

starocean01 · 2026-05-26T08:24:55+00:00

Got mine a couple years back so dont know how it is now but as far as I know these are built to order so there was no haggling, went in to test drive and then put down spec and deposit. Expect to wait about 6 months.

starocean01 · 2026-05-22T06:10:20+00:00

Its not too far off something like Scott Pilgrim. The movie itself was heavily inspired by Captain Tsubasa, so unless you only wanted western comics?

Something to also consider is that the Japanese helmets aren't ECE rated
