Based on this video, I took the plunge and bought one. I have a gigantic head with a 7 5/8 hat size. That helped at work because nobody stole my hat. Plus, my head is long, front to back, and narrow side to side. Getting a helmet to fit right was almost impossible. I splurged on a HJC modular that just gave me a splitting headache in under two hours, every time.
I took a chance and bought a SuperSeer, sight unseen. FITS PERFECTLY. The inside of the helmet looks harder and less forgiving but it is honestly very easy on my head. Very neutral. My only regret is not buying one sooner.
When I need a laugh to pick me up, I go to the outtakes between you and Camera-girl. You two are priceless. Thanks for sharing.
Yea she's a laugh a minute... shaking that camera like it's a milk shake.
That end was actually the best. 😂👍
You guys are hilarious! Luv the out takes . . . . marriage, you gotta love it!
just arrived short cuts and surviving the mean streets2, Thank you two was a great surprise! Even if I have to wait till spring to ride and practice, Gordon Fort Erie Ont Canada
MM, glad that you did this vid. I've always loved the Cop Helmet. I'm going to get me one. You are "Da Man"
Thanks for this material!!! I was looking for such a helmet!
Jerry I use the Seer Helmet half retired now. Love this helmet. Great Helmet very well constructed. Be Safe Be Cool Ride Safe👮🏻♀️🏍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Just snagged this video and really appreciated your comments on the practical Seer half helmets. Lost my favorite Premier blue and white and have always wanted to replace it with this tried and true. So comfortable as you say as well as durable, and best fitting. Always appreciated the easily installed ear warmers too. Nice!! Pre take video was hilarious 😂
Loved the Out takes !! It keeps it Real.
Motor man you know we all can’t be as cool as you. I’ve got a HJC that’s a copy of the seer. It has a sun shield and sales for about $85.00 I’ve got a 2005 Yamaha road star Silverado, so I can’t but but do cool anyway. If I ever learn how to ride I’ll probably get a seer. Thanks for all of your videos. I’m already more knowledgeable because of your videos. Thanks.
Love my seer had it for 15 still going strong
I’ll be shopping Seer for Christmas. Thank you!
Call 1-800-645-1285 and ask for Kevin. Tell him I sent you and get 50 bucks off. YES 50 DOLLARS OFF.
A bit like my old Chips helmet that Shoei made. I used to love it. This guy's a character.
Brother, you’re a wealth of knowledge
I love you two. So funny. The Woodlands, Texas
I like the idea of carbon fiber and half shell for long rides because my spinal stenosis kills my neck on long rides. I used to wear a novelty helmet which gives little protection but saved my neck on 600 mile days. This looks like a good option.
While I like the idea of the protection offered by a full-face, I overheat very easily, and have yet to find one that doesn't severely restrict my (above average) peripheral vision. I normally wear a 3/4 that has great ventilation and wide field-of-view but have worn a half on several occasions. Interestingly, the half helmet seems to have less wind noise. The Seer has been in my favorites menu for quite some time, and after seeing how good the quality is, it will be my next helmet for sure!
Do you have a full helmet video? I like the idea of an intercom and Bluetooth connectivity with my phone. Any tips along those lines?
A lot of guys would be angry hearing you say You ride better than they do. I was employed driving a commercial vehicle for 34 years and subjected to driving skills and knowledge not available to most. Today i bought a helmet ( Bell Scout Air ) getting ready to take my motorcycle class in a couple weeks. Staying back, slowing through intersections and leaving stopping room. real important. If you pay attention hard enough you won't enjoy riding. That was told to me at 15 years old and i have always remembered it.. Your slow riding and turning video has been a lot of help.. Thanks
Motor officers are among the top 2% of riders in the U.S. because of the training we receive and continue to get throughout our careers. So if people get angry when I say I ride better, prove me wrong. There are now competitions throughout the U.S. where anyone can compete with motor officers as long as they qualify.
We have a very busy 4 way stop where i live and countless number of people run the stop sign once they see you are about to have the right of way completing a stop before them. Many never slow down at all seeing only one other car approaching the intersection. Somehow the intent of your stop signals them that they are covered and speed through. In the corporate world nothing is ever about safety, its all about money and liability. My employer gets a huge free pas from Florida DOT never having to complete repairs on many things private vehicles were always getting stopped for all the time. The DOT never bothered our equipment unless driver error was an issue but never stopping a vehicle for lights not working or countless other mechanical issues. Drivers being fired for running stop signs while others working in other locations were never spoke to about it. Its never about safety. The biggest obstacle is teaching your self patience, The act of sitting five seconds at a stop sign before moving is impossible after years of habit and motor skills. Realizing this and relearning new behavior is a task of some difficulty for most having to draw back on old skills and begin a new approach with goals that are planned. Ask anyone to challenge themselves to stay five seconds before moving on at a stop sign. most wont do it or cant even when that is their intent ..It becomes genetic behavior of sorts, But then being retired i am never in a hurry and have unlearned the work mentality of getting it done yesterday..
I really love my new Daytona Cruiser 3/4 helmet. I bought it last week because I couldn’t handle the heat & humidity here in East TN while wearing my HJC IS Max modular.
The Daytona Cruiser is extremely low profile & I was comfortable in it yesterday @ 90 degrees and high humidity.
That vinyl on Donna’s helmet looks like what happened to my old Bilt modular.
I have to go look at the Seer helmets now.
Lol at the end. 😂
Love the outtakes😁
Jerry I would like to thank you for your service, and I really enjoy watching your videos. Out of all the years you have been riding, have you ever been involved in an accident while riding your bike?
I’m new. Just bought a bike too big, 03 Honda VTX1800r. I weight 305lbs and have a giant potato head, but I have friends who are teaching me to ride safe, and I finally found a modular helmet that fits. I suspect I’ll want one of those Seer Helmets, after I develop some skills and confidence. I’m buying your videos on USB today. Thank you for the knowledge.
Leather is the best and you can always keep it looking great with a good leather dressing. Dubbin is also great. Unfortunately society appears to be happy with cheap items that they have to replace every other year! As you stated, you get what you pay for and I reckon that my head,(worn and ugly as it is),is worth the extra pennies. Will have a look at SEER for my next one. Love the banter between youself and your wife at the end. Stay riding brother.
I have use half helmets since the late 60's my 2nd helmet was an old Cleveland PD helmet I used until about 92. My helmet I have now is about 28 years old or older so maybe I should look into a new helmet.
I have a Seer and it’s a great helmet.
What people wear is up to them. I won’t ride without a full helmet. I crashed enough riding dirt bikes to understand where I tend to hit the ground. But that’s me. Anyone that tries to dictate what another adult does or doesn’t do needs to get over themselves. Your opinion isn’t that important. And what’s right for you may not be what’s right for me.
I like one that don't roast me in the sun, and another one that will keep me warm under 50deg.
Take it easy @informalGreeting…. Appreciate the dudes hustle…he believes in the products just as much as you believe you don’t want anyone telling you what to do.
He’s trying to keep riders safe.
Shut up
I'm here for the outtakes.
I got a new super seer half helmet recently but got the removable liner instead of the pads so I can wash it frequently. Great helmet. Love it
How long did it take you to get it from the time you ordered?
Gonna say about 3 months?
@@josea5949
Thanks
Was it custom painted?
Its been four months for me and they tell me it's going to be several more weeks. I have no idea how they decide to build what helmet and when. I really can't get them to tell me how far down the list I am. I'm at my wits end about this cause they originally told me two months. Hearing any comments about your ecperiamcr would be helpful. Maybe I can follow suit. They seem to scoot me farther and farther back every time I call.
No its the black and white like what Jerry wears
Thanks!
I really enjoy your humor, never stop. Donna, keep picking on him. Stay safe
Still have both my seer duty helmets after 30+ yes. Buddy bought a Vega brand, it is a nice helmet. Funny how these companies have been coping the old seer.
Having a chat with your wife in the outtake I can see why you need a really good helmet 🤣🤣🤣
In the early 90's I saw a Sign at a Helmet Sales Area; It said, "your head is only worth
as much as your helmet". Alluding to the obvious.....get a good helmet.
One of the dumbest 'sayings' ... ever. So, get a good helmet worth how much? Three hundred...five hundred dollars..so then that's all your head is worth. Three hundred bucks...LOL.
@@badmonks ~ How much? IDKnow, if you think buying a cheaper piece
of equipment is better for You than go for it? Typically more expensive
will be better but we still have to analyze all of it. My head is worth
much more & I'll buy the best to protect my head. And my State don't
require a helmet. Generally speaking, more $$ is better & we are faced
everyday w/ that ideology. That "Slogan" made them lots of $$ & it
turned out to be a wise thing. So did you buy the $100 helmet?
peace
Hi Jerry, I'm a HD rider here in Australia and appreciate your channel. Love my half helmet and appreciated your explanation. One thing. What's your thought on the quick release? I ask because once I was adjusting my jacket zip/collar and brushed up against the quick release and my helmet flew off! Got me thinking on whether in a crash the helmet would stay on. Thoughts please.
The ending was the best part of the video. LOLOL
I rock a Super Seer on duty and a full face off duty. A 12 hour shift with a full face helmet would be unbearable and not practical. Super seers are top notch and their customer service is great! Also it works great with my Setcom headset
HOW DARE YOU! Yup. I do the same thing. On the road when I'm doing my vlogs I have to wear a full face to cut out the wind noise. But in the summer the FF is brutal after a couple of hours. On a long trip where I won't be doing a lot of stop and go traffic I'll wear the FF.
Thank you for the information... I'm looking for a new helmet something that's different... These just may fit the bill! .....I'm glad I've discovered your channel sir, I really enjoy watching your videos....

On the Seer website they seem to have full face HJC and Nolan helmets that are just renamed. I'm looking for a full face helmet made in the USA.
Great review! Thanks.

My Super Seer was issued by the PD. 20 years ago (1999). I’ll buy a new one. Mine has the hanging “web” I’ll try the new pad. That strap behind the head is key to keeping the helmet secure and not riding back.
@@KipBurbank1 here's the link from SEER for the 50.00 discount for my subscribers, superseer.com/blog/20413/Ride-Like-A-Pro
Ride Like a Pro Jerry Palladino awesome. Appreciate that.
Full face helmets are the safest protection in all temperatures, most have plenty of ventilation, how cool will you look with no chin or face, try leaving a bike at 85mph with a half helmet AKA skid lid, scars in the chin guard of my full face, made me glad I had a full face helmet
Hey Motorman, I took advantage of the discount for the SEER helmet, which will be ready in a couple of weeks. Thanks? I opted for the Carbon Fiber with Harley Davidson Twisted Cherry color. In the mean time, I need to decide on the type of ear harness (close or open) to install once they tell me the helmet portion is done. I will be using a SENA 20S communications device that is coming off my prior 3/4 helmet. BTW, I've never worn a half helmet. Hopefully you can help me decide on which harness will be best for my needs concerning the comms I will be using. With the closed ear harness the speakers will be inside of a pair of Super SEER ear muffs which are made a fuzzy material and are attached to the inside of harness with Velcro. The representative at SEER said that this type might be a bit warm in hot climates. BTW, I live in NC. The other option (open ear) is a type that you are probably familiar with as a motor officer. My understanding is that the Super SEER ear muff is made of a hard material that mounts outside the open ear harness. Is this the type that you used when you were running comms as a motor officer? The PROS and CONS of each as I see them are: Pros of the closed ear harness is that there will be less wind noise and the material will be softer against the ear. Con: Possibly too hot. The open ear harness; Pro: Cooler. Cons: possibly more wind noise and semi hard ear muff pressing against the ear. What say you? Thanks and sorry for the lengthy post.
I'm gonna be 65 years old started riding a mini bike when I was 9 yrs old then honda 50 on up then Kawasakis then Suzukis no helmet law in Nebraska then at 40yrs old started riding harley davidsons now helmet law in nebraska always wear half helmet never an accident still riding new 2018 street glide special and still have my jaw . I like to be able see when I'm riding
Thanks for the helmet recommendation. Gift to self for Christmas! Do you have one for cold weather gloves that are flexible enough to allow easy operation of controls? I'm in Florida too, so for me cold is 50 - 60 degrees.
A company is supposed to e sending me a pair to test very soon.
@@motorman857 I'll stay tuned, thanks
Glad I watched Jerry.
Looking for replacement pads for an old police helmet like the ones you have that are V shaped with the velcro.
Hi Jerry I wouldnt mind buying one of the Super Seer Helmets, but im in Australia & to my search they dont sell them here. When i looked on there web site it looks like they only sell them in USA, & there is no email address for them for me to find out.......what a bummer....Cheers alway look at your shows
Looks a great helmet but I would def change it more frequently than 20 years
full and modular are hjc or nolan or ahoei per their website
My helmet mushrooms my head but it fits and it's a damn nice helmet.
I bumped into and got in a conversation with a Wedding Ceremony Hostess recently. She makes a good living setting up those moments before the Holy Man, from start to finish.
I told her, weddings are pretty much the same thing (as I see it) as a funeral...she then said that she herself calls them Stand Up Funerals.
With the current divorce rate of 54% for first marriages, it's worse than ever. Would you fly on a plane with a 54/46 tail number?
Things that make you go Hmmm.
In other news, yes, these are excellent helmets and the forthcoming $50 discount certainly makes me want a second one.
Yes, Jerry is correct, the de-laminating of the straps and rusty links of the various Kung-fu brands/manufacturers is 100% annoying and makes one think the rest of the construction is also price-point grade.
you're quite the salesman mate.
lol love the outtakes
!!! tripod may help
That's the problem. She WAS using a tripod!
Lol that’s hilarious!!!
Fiberglass degrades slowly (they are used in boat construction). UV rays water salt amd wind.. Kevlar will degrade a lot quicker 5 year garanty. Probably lasts for 7-10 years. 15 is pushing it. The eps foam)(basicaly styrofoam ) was tested for 30years burried underground. Marginal loss in properties. The 5 year limit is probably the accumulation of minor damage when inproperly stored or used
Winter temps of 65 and 70! Oh if I didn’t have kids and grandkids!
Years ago I heard/read that police officers don't wear full face helmets because when they approach a person they don't want their face hidden from view to that person for communicating purposes.
I say buy a half helmet if you only want to protect half your head. I've worn my full face all day in 115 degree F weather. Full gear as well.
That's right. You makes your choices and ya takes your chances and thank God for the freedom to do so.
I thank The Flying Spaghetti Monster for the freedom to do so.
May you be touched by his noodly appendage. Ramen.
Ride Like a Pro Jerry Palladino ...I saw a nice looking woman go down at five miles an hour on the back of a bike, she was wearing a half helmet, she smashed her beautiful face. (She was prob early fifties). It was not good. It was at Sturgis. Full face would have saved the day.
@@blipco5 Yup. A full face helmet is certainly safer than a half helmet. But if your gonna wear a half helmet, as 100's of thousands do, then get the best.
Locally, in our city, a Police Officer was killed in a minor traffic accident wearing her duty half helmet instead of her off-duty full face Aria. The ER surgeon (a friend of mine) said had she been wearing adequate protection, she would still be riding. Sad, to say the least. Instead of requiring proper gear, our PD disbanded the MC mounted force later, without fanfare. Remember any helmet is better than no helmet. It’s your choice.
Jerry , should times get tough and you have to cut back. Could you maybe pass the Camera Girls Resume along this Way , Rodeo Drive Shopping as a BONUS😉
U-La-La!~ Rodeo Drive!!?! Thanks Edward VP, will keep this in mind, :)
I really enjoy your videos but I disagree with you on this, I am living proof that 1/2 are bad! I wont post the video or pictures but I got brain damage after being hit by a truck! it messed me up very bad for over 2 years but I am back to riding a New Harley again but I will never take a chance again with 1/2 helmet. I have been riding since I was a little child. I am 65 now and very lucky to be alive but I do agree with all your other posts! they are very handy to refresh my Brain! Thank you Jerry for all your awesome tips, God Bless
I didn't say a half helmet is better. I simply said if you're going to wear a half helmet, get the best. Obviously, a full face is safer. Seer also has full face helmets for sale as well.
@@motorman857 I agree but I really dont like the full face as much and its heavy but I will check out the Seer Thanks again)
Pat Sharkey glad you have recovered. I have a half helmet and some friends have full helmets. They chose to give up hearing more and seeing more. Too many blind spots when exiting an intersection and changing lanes on congested roads to make me wear a full helmet.
Love that we still have choices.
Be well.
Great info 👍🏻

All I wear is a half.

Another great video, have 5 helmets now, oh wait 6, anyways after riding since 1964, even a short time on a cycle for the NYS Park Police in New York, it has come to the end of two wheels and I will be getting a 2020 Cam-Am Spyder in 2020, SO when are you going to do a three wheeler video? They do have Police Cam-Am three wheel bikes! Also I need a new Blue Knights colored helmet! Ride With Pride....
Seer has the Blue Nights colors. As for trikes, the Can Am is by far the safest and most fun to ride. Of course, some youtube experts will make something out of that statement.
@@motorman857 I know your right! LOL
Good info... end of video... 😂 I think Donna stabilizes her bike better hahaha jk love you both thank you
For pure Safety I used full mask!!!
Like the Lone Ranger?
I wear a full face even when it’s 100 degrees here in California. Strongly suggest people doing the same. The chin is the most impacted area in a crash. You think you look cool until you are drinking a steak dinner through a straw.
Hey Mr. Palladino.
That Jacket you are wearing looks very nice. Can you put up a link so I can get myself one? Thanks.
Sorry but that jackets at least 15 years old and I don't remember where I got it.
This is your lucky day. There is the exact jacket for sale on ebay. Type in( honda rider collection vtx hypertex black motorcycle jacket).
Thank you!
I am putting this on my wish list. Next stimulus check, 🤞! Hopefully it won't be VETOED! The offer expired 12/31 😒! Besides someone stated that I should wear a full face helmet. Not for me - I always have been a half helmet girl!
Jerry, Any idea if I can mount a Sena 30k on this helmet?
Is that a Hells Angel’s emblem on your jacket Jerry? 😂
Two months for delivery to NJ.
Interesting that the new Seer has a ratchet, quick release vs double D thing. Do you feel that is just a safe?
You get to choose which strap you want.
I aways said when I move to AZ I wouldn't wear a helmet. I now wear a modular helmet or a 3/4 helmet. I guess age brings some wisdom.
Nice helmet but here in germany not road legal, in italy the will even take your bike if you use it (no EC number, just DOT). 😢
My favorite part was the last minute. Your wife sounds like a pretty good woman.
LMAO......loved the outtakes. Careful when ur talking to the camera person/wife Motorman.....pay back is a ........
What is the average time to recieve a helmet when ordering? Its been five months for me and they tell me its going to be several more weeks along with whatever reason is popular for that week. Originally I was told two months. Thats fine, I paid $400 anyway but it has been 5 months now. I honestly think they are pushing orders ahead of other orders. Cant get a straight answer from them at all. I really dont see how any of you got a helmet from seer.
Maybe I should have used this code but I didnt. Very frustrating because I work so much I dont even have time to call and cancel my order so my money, that is now in there bank, is just sitting in limbo right now.
Would the number two question then be; what boots do you wear? I've noticed the patrol officers have some sort of higher black boots with straps in two or three places. I'd like to get some similar to that.
google would be the answer to that question.
Very well then. And what is your preference in boots? Are there any you would like to recommend?
Wesco, Chippewa and seem to be popular for police officers.
@@uncletom1971 No preference. They all seem to take lots of break in time.
I agree.
Ha! Now you’re talking. I amortize the cost of my shoes the same way. Cost/years of use= cost per year.
What glasses or googles over prescriptions glasses do you / others recommend while wearing this helmet?
So do you prefer the carbon over fiber seers ?
I wear the prescription sun glasses you see me with in this video. As for the carbon fiber, it is lighter than the fiberglass but I haven't worn it enough to say which I prefer.
Ride Like a Pro Jerry Palladino
Thanks
Great channel
Higher prices it's for your head to save your life. However I picked up a rider in Paris who had a half helmet , and when we intubated him, it was very easy as he had no lower jaw left, it had been ripped off by a 10m slide on the roadway. So I just stuck the intubation tube into his trachea.
Thanks for the cheer you ray of sunshine you.
@@cgmp5764 C'mon. You' d trust an insurance company? In the real world, what would happen if the insurance company found they could charge more if you wore a half helmet, they'd say lets invest in Shoei and then charge more for anybody who doesn't wear a shoei helmet. Then they'd jack up the price of the Shoei helmet and make more money on both ends.
I would like to know if the USA will be adopting the ECE-R 22.06 helmet safety standard Canada and the other countries have adopted in their respective countries? I know we are DOT here in the USA. I live in PA and know we dont have the helmet laws here if I use this helmet while riding. I qualify with not needing a helmet, but fear I will get pulled over in another State when I wear my ECE-R 22.06 helmet from Germany and ride through a State that requires a helmet with DOT certifications, etc... Do you have any info on any new standards coming here in the USA for ECE-R 2206?????
Sorry I have no information on that. As for police pulling you over for having a ECE-R standard vs Dot, that should be the least of your worries.
From Snell: The five-year replacement recommendation is based on a consensus by both helmet manufacturers and the Snell Foundation. Glues, resins and other materials used in helmet production can affect liner materials. Hair oils, body fluids and cosmetics, as well as normal "wear and tear" all contribute to helmet degradation. Petroleum based products present in cleaners, paints, fuels and other commonly encountered materials may also degrade materials used in many helmets possibly degrading performance. Additionally, experience indicates there will be a noticeable improvement in the protective characteristic of helmets over a five-year period due to advances in materials, designs, production methods and the standards. Thus, the recommendation for five-year helmet replacement is a judgment call stemming from a prudent safety philosophy.
Wait..didn't Snell say Florida and Manhattan would be under water by 2015?
Ride Like a Pro Jerry Palladino: LOL, well I’m in FL and above water, so not sure who said that but they were wrong. I was citing from the motorcycle foundation. Heard the same thing in my MSF class when I was learning to ride in 2014...change your helmet out for safety every 3-5 years. Everyone has to make their decisions about safety equipment.
Been thinking about heading down to your neck of the woods from Jax to take a class with you. Learned a lot from your CZcams vids and a local similar class. Thanks for your work to improve motorcycle safety!
@@slcea7 Come to think of it, everybody should buy a new Ride Like a Pro video every 3-to 5 years...
It was Algore. I think I saw Algore duckwalking his bike in South Daytona. He couldn’t U-Turn and missed the coleslaw wrestling.
I wear hearing aids and sometimes they go flying when I remove a helmet. Maybe this is the answer.
This summer I cam across a motorcycle accident a few blocks from my house. Laying on the street was a road glide seat and nothing else. Only the seat and it was laying exactly where the rider would be it at the stop sign. A lady on phone ran sign at 45 and hit him from behind. The motorcycle was 50 feet away and the rider was laying on sidewalk holding his head. It was cigarette guy. A guy I had seen smoking a cig even riding on the local highway with no helmet. Blood was pouring from his head and I just could not bring myself to turn record him for youtube after I made eye contact with the guy. Luckly for him the fire department was across the street.
Did they offer him a smoke?

Seer Helmets are made in the U.S.A. That's why they aren't cheap chit. Check them out at superseer.com and educate yourself.
Well, I guess I know what I'll be asking for from Mama Claus this Christmas... Having a lot of trouble deciding what type lining I want in it though.
PS You also sold me on getting a Freedom Shields windshield :-)
SEER helmets are great! I purchased one from a motor officer in Michigan that was selling it because the police force there was changing over to the Shoei 3/4 helmet, due to numerous head injuries from impacts to the unprotected back of the head. Mine had the straps system instead of foam in the liner, which really provided great air circulation. Ended up selling it because it was to big and adjusting the headband and straps just didn't work for me.
Motorman, do you find that people cut you off or do other stupid stuff More or Less or the Same as, when you are riding your police bike look alike as compared a typical stock bike?? The reason given as to why motor officers wear the Half helmets is so they can easily communicate with it on, that is the reason they are switching to the 3/4 or modular helmets. Thanks for the informative, albeit slightly biassed video.
When I had black or white police bikes and wore the Seer helmet, people would drive very slow around me. With the new blue bikes I now have, not so much.
A full face is ideal from a protective standpoint. For those concerned about heat, the Bell Bullitt is a superb helmet with exceptional field of view, and heavy airflow. Would not recommend for cooler temperatures. It’s more a vintage style helmet though so it lacks in some areas.

Whats the deal with helmets expiring after 5 years?
Since watching this video, I have gone to the SuperSeer website and twice tried to contact them for a price to ship a carbon fiber 64cm helmet to my reshipping company in Oregon, and they don't respond.
They answer the phone every time for me. The only thing I dont like is the fact they tell me they are back ordered, they have no paint or they are short of materials. Then they tell me they are just a small company.
If they are back ordered then they should have a list. They cant even tell me where I fall in that list. I'm really about to get my money back. They were supposed to give me $40 back but they keep telling me excuse after excuse.
One girl who answered the phone and I asked where do I fall on this list her reply was "So you want me to get up and go all the way down the stairs and go down the hallway?"
It was suposed to have been 2 months now it has been 5 and they tell me it wont be for several more weeks. Did you ever get your helmet?
I purchased a helmet for $70.00 at the Honda shop several years ago and while making a right turn onto a side street my rear tire lost traction and slid out from under me and that cheap helmet saved my noggin. I hit hard and never noticed the hit to my head. I have nothing against a budget helmet. I even have a Harley half helmet I only paid$85 for. I trust it just as much as a$600.00 full conversion helmet.
Great looking helmet. But 21 yrs?? The foam deteriorates after 5-7 years and does not offer the same protection. That is noted all over the place and every riding course I've done - provincial Safety Council ones - have said that.
Scientist all over the place also say there are dozens of genders. Until I see an actual test, I'm skeptical.
@@motorman857 actually no legit scientist has ever said that!!!
@@chriskibodeaux9818 That's it! Your canceled! 😁😁
So is there a different version of the video on the USB and there is on the DVD
No. My NEW Ride Like a Pro and Surviving the Mean Streets on the USB are not different versions.
@@motorman857 thanks, after re-watching it I misinterpreted it initially, sounds like the usb has the full version and the dvd has the shortcuts version
@@Fee.1 The USB contains 2 video's. ''The New Ride Like a Pro video'' and the ''Surviving the Mean Streets II'' video. Both are available on dvd or via download, as well. The video ''Short Cuts to Riding Like a Pro'' is NOT available on USB. It is available on dvd or a download. The Short cut's video is about an hour in length, and does not contain the motor officer course and is not as comprehensive and detailed as The New Ride Like a Pro video.
Exactly , in this world there are only trade-offs, no guarantees and we are responsible for the risks we take. Covid is the perfect example; complete lock downs did worse.
DOT is a minimum rating. A SNELL rating takes a helmet to the next level. If you have a $10 head buy a $10 helmet. Agree 100% on you get what you pay for.
As a full man, with full intelligence, I refuse to wear a hkaf helmet. That is like asking me which part of my head I can go without.
My wife defeats everything almost every time. she refuses new technology and I'm like so I have to do everything because you refuse to learn!!!! She is very lucky that I don't mind but I really do. There are only so many hrs in a day and I'm not retired. Semi retired and it was way worse before that.
