Rode for another 500km or so today. For the Breast Cancer pledge ride.
As usual, my poker derby cards were shit
Pics later.

Fine, I'll thumbnail them later.
Finished cleaning my helmet and I still don't get why most riders don't wear full face or modular helmets. The bugs...dear God the bugs. I had 2 huge ass flies hit me on the visor and exploded in goo. Shit ton more bugs met the same fate.
Haha, fair enough. Eh, what can I say? I like the color of it.
he's hating, its fine. it's fast as fuck and i like it. advice on best way to listen to tunes on it? just use earbuds?
I used to use earbuds but with the wire and how they shifted when riding really got to me. Decided to plunk down on the Sena SMH10.
Using the bluetooth for music is all right, but you can definitely notice a bit of noise from the interference. The AUX wire solves that though. Speakers are all right, at max volume they do a decent job when traveling at touring speeds (70+mp/h, 100km/h). If you have a full face/modular helmet, I suggest the speaker in helmet solution. If not, earbuds will be great for other types of helmets.
You need IEMs if you don't want to go deaf
Also forgot to note on the longer trips that involve higher speeds, I do put on ear plugs. Soft ones where it blocks out most wind noise but I can still hear my tunes.
Yeah... i'm thinking it would be stupid to NOT us a full face/modular helmet.

Good choice. That particular HJC helmet was the one I was eyeing a couple months ago before I settled for a full face one. I own a modular helmet too and while I do like it, I prefer full face ones.
That's the helmet my friend just picked up. Model 1 had problems with the modular front ripping off in crashes but that's the fixed with Models 2 and onward.
This must be the model 1

I use a scorpion exo-500. It doesn't fit great, but good enough for 200 bucks. Apparently I need an arai profile or signet but they are like 600 bucks so fuck that
Fits like a glove.
I lowsided last night in a parking lot fucking around at about 30mph. Got a few holes in the jacket, brake pedal bent and ground down. Helmet survived! Zero injuries to me. I guess dirt bikes aren't meant for 50° lean angles on pavement
It detaches for safe keeping.
Bought a yamaha 250x (super moto) few weeks ago, most fun bike I ever owned. I expect to loose my license from all the stuiped things I have been doing with it though lol.
