kakabuwiset nga lang minsan, tatanungin ka nila about sa suot mo, tapos pag ine-ducate mo sila ng konti about sa safety gears, ayun! namimilosopo na! :evil:ok lang yan, sir rev....don't mind them...basta maging example na lang tayo sa kanila....being responsible and safety conscious plus trying to influence others is more than enough na rin.....it's their own judgement call if they'll heed your advice......they learn their lessons one way or the other....at least tau nauna nang natuto,hehe:D

hehehe!:O at least cute pa rin if ever na mag slide or semplang!:D
sinasabi ko now eh, kahit nga si Zaido naka safety gears eh! yung isa dun scoyco pa yung suot, yung knee pads nilagay sa balikat tapos pinintahan yata ng gold hehe!:O:Dhehe....napansin mo rin pala yung scoyco knee/shin guard na ginawang shoulder pads,hehe:O


salamat po ng marami sa mga nakaappreciate sa thread na ito.....para po sa atin ito!!!!:clap:

ako tawag sa akin dito sa office ZAIDOOOOOO!!! hehehe....

nung una, ang helm ko is F1, mahal nga kuha ko eh... 1600 ata..

tapos kailangan ko bilhan esmi ko ng helm kasi mahal na araw eh bihira byahe, binilhan ko sya ng INDEX 911, 2300 pero nakuha ko ng 1800 kasi sale... ok naman yung INDEX, di sya mukhang tsipipay...

tapos july, bumili na ako ng zeus helm ko... hehehe...

4months din nagtagal bago ako nagpalit ng helm...

tapos nung pumunta ako ng states, di ko na tinipid ang safety gears, although pinagkasya ko sa natitirang budget ko..

sa awa ng Diyos, nakabili ako ng AGV mesh jacket for me and a Rio JR for esmi... pareho kami ng knee/shin guard na Alpinestar at JR na Stage1 gloves...

kaya yung mga nakakasablubong ko na ke gaganda ng mc, nakatingin lang sila sa akin... kasi naka full battle gear ako, [B]sila naka full battle shades lang...

nyahahaha! full battle shades!:O

hehe....napansin mo rin pala yung scoyco knee/shin guard na ginawang shoulder pads,hehe:O


salamat po ng marami sa mga nakaappreciate sa thread na ito.....para po sa atin ito!!!!:clap:


uu napansin ko yun, napatingin nga ako bigla eh! yun kasi yung shin guard ng clubmate ko hehe! saka yung binebenta dati dito sa mcp! tapos ginawa na rin namin yun ng tropa, katuwaan lang, yung pole position nga lang hehe!

mga sir,
add ko lang po ito,nabasa ko lang and just want to share with you....

"Why do we wear helmets? Protection from wind, bugs, cold. Protection when we're sliding somewhere where we wish we weren't. Protection from a hit on the head. Protection from penetration (see sliding above). How important are these? My father-in-law was an optometrist, he told me that most all the motorcycle riders he examined had micro-scars and embedded sand all over their eyes. Bugs? I've been nearly knocked off a bike when hitting a desert beetle the size of a golf ball at 80mph. Hitting your head? I know of at least two cases where helmetless people stopped at an intersection, tipped over their bikes, hit their head on the way down, and died."

"Executive Summary: Buy a half or full-face helmet that's 1) Snell certified, 2) comfortable, and 3) attractive. Within those constraints, spend whatever you're comfortable with. More expensive helmets may be more attractive and/or more comfortable, but they are no safer than less expensive Snell certified helmets. Buy a new helmet at least every five years. Destroy helmets that are significantly older than five years. Wear your helmet most of the time, especially on short trips close to home. Avoid the new flip-open helmets, as the hinge mechanism compromises the protection of your temples and eye sockets. At the time of this writing (7/04) no flip-open helmet has been Snell certified. Here's the official list of all currently Snell certified helmets. "

eto pa po mga sir.

"Helmets consist of a hard shell which protects your head from penetration and from abrasion. Internal to the shell is a styrofoam liner roughly 1" thick; this protects your head from impact forces. In a crash, the styrofoam is permanently crushed, so if you hit your head with your helmet on, you must consider that the helmet is used up. The helmet may look just fine externally, perhaps just a small scratch, but it likely no longer has impact-absorbing abilities in that area. The next layer in is soft foam rubber and a cloth liner which are important for fit and feel, but offer no protection in case of a crash. The important points a helmet should protect, according to the Snell institute, are the crown of your head, your temples particularly right behind your eye socket, and your jaw. Unfortunately, the best temple protection results in compromised peripheral vision, and proper jaw protection requires a full-face helmet. Jaw protection is not just to protect your pretty chin: as any good fighter knows, the fastest way to give someone a concussion is with a good upper cut. Eye socket protection is critical in an impact. It seems these new flip-open helmets have compromised eye socket protection due to the hinge mechanism. "

hehehehe
meron pa pala mga sir,
sana di kayo mag sawang mag basa para rin sa atin lahat eto.....

"When buying a helmet, the most important thing is to get a Snell and DOT certified helmet which fits and feels good. The helmet should be a bit snug when brand new, as it will pack down a little bit to fit your head. For this reason, it's not a good idea to loan out your helmet - it will pack down to fit lots of heads, and wind up not really fitting anyone. Also, I personally would rather loan out my underwear than my helmet - I put my face in my helmet. To buy a helmet, I recommend you go to several motorcycle dealerships and accessory shops, and try on as many different brands and models as you can find. There's a good chance someday you'll wear your helmet for 12 hours or more, so it had best be comfortable"

"spoke at length with the people at the Snell institute about this topic (7/04). They have never had a flip-open helmet submitted to them for certification, and therefore have never tested one, nor have they paid much attention to them. They found my statement, that flip-open helmets can cause temple damage, quite interesting. I learned from them that essentially all helmet manufacturers have in-house testing facilities and do a very good job of this. They named three companies in particular who do a superlative job; all three make flip-open helmets. I was told that the manufacturers can perform the Snell certification tests just as well as Snell can, so they know well in advance if they are going to pass. "

"Snell and DOT testing is performed with a magnesium dummy head in the helmet. The magnesium head has one accelerometer located at the center of gravity. This means the accelerometer cannot test for twisting forces, and it can only record the average impact force on the head, the force averaged over the entire surface of the magnesium head. There is no way this device could record a sharp impact on a small area, such as might occur if the hard plastic hinge mechanism hit the magnesium skull. The Snell and DOT tests have separate tests for the shell, to see that they resist penetration by sharp objects. The tests are not designed to record if a small hard object already inside the shell hits your head. So, it turns out that Snell and DOT tests are not very sensitive to an impact from a hinge mechanism. "

"None the less, it's interesting that none of the flip-open helmets have ever been submitted to Snell for independent testing. Some of the companies that make these helmets pay to have essentially all of their other street helmets certified, but not the flip-open in particular. I find this exceedingly suspicious."

"I recommend you avoid flip-open helmets if safety is a concern. Side impacts to your head are quite common in motorcycle accidents. The temple area is the weakest part of the skull. Injury to the temple area can cause substantial brain damage and substantial vision impairment. If you have a side impact in a crash I believe flip-open helmets will likely cause temple fractures and concussions far in excess of what you would have from a full-face or open-face Snell helmet. I believe you're safer in an open-face helmet than in a flip-open. "

ako marami akong natutunang bago dito,sana kayo din...

basta maging example na lang tayo sa kanila....being responsible and safety conscious plus trying to influence others is more than enough na rin.....

korekness sir... pag nakita nila na maganda at bagay ang helmet, bibili na rin yang mga yan.. sana lang maging fashionista ang mga riders, fashionista sa mga helmets & other gears :) the more d' merrier :)

.


ang kadalasang dahilan ng mga nagmo-motor na walang helmet ay para daw sila makita at mamukhaan ng publiko lalo na kung pogi daw yung mga motor nila, ipinagmamayabang kumbaga.

.

sa bday ko papabili ako ng shoei helmets or caberg ung rhyno..hehehe..hope so..or kung
di pumayag ermats ko kahit ung zeus na modular nalang pwede na..hehe
by this time helmet ko is index lang pero ok na din.. nice thread here..

korekness sir... pag nakita nila na maganda at bagay ang helmet, bibili na rin yang mga yan.. sana lang maging fashionista ang mga riders, fashionista sa mga helmets & other gears :) the more d' merrier :)


Asylum,

Pero sana naman meron limitation.... wife ko binili ko ng Light Blue na helmet, tapos nagpapabili ng light blue na bag.

Nung nakakita kami ng Yellow na helmet hindi na ako bumili kasi baka magpabili ulit ng bag pang terno. :D

mas maganda siguro kung maganda rin ang motor mo & magaganda rin ang mga helmets, gloves & jackets :D

ako inaamin ko minsan hindi ako nag hehelmet and naka steed po ako tapos ung helmet ko ung parang tabo lang

Mas saludo pako sa may mas mahal na helmet pa sa motor niya kesa, customized bike na tabo helmet.

I have a nice helmet,pero tong Girlfriend ko ayaw talaga mag helmet, kc para daw syang ROBOT, hehehe,,,,,,,

last night, going home with my wife (backride)
a group of show-offs ang um-overtake sa amin, along park avenue sa pasay city
ang gagaling mag-banking, naka-loud pipes, etc...
the sad part is, walang gears... not even wearing their helmets
sana 'yung mga group/clubs, should advocate safety among their members... IMHO

Kanina lang while on my way home from work, nilampasan ako sa kanan ko ng naka Kawasaki big bike. Ahay, yung motor ang naka helmet at hindi yung rider. Hanep pa naman kung maka split lane maski alanganin. So pathetic...

Sana talaga may compulsary motorcyle tests and education bago makakuha ng license just like in the UK. I'm willing to take the tests and attend bike schools kahit pang level1. hehehe... dapat talaga.

Also, dapat may "Rating" sticker din dapat ang mga helmet dito sa Pinas bago ibenta sa public... like sa Europe may Snell and ACU Gold rating. pag wala ang certification, edi hindi pwede ibenta.

ako binilhan ko ng medyo magandang klaseng helmet ang gf ko para, yung fulface. mahirap na.. ipapahiram ko rin sana sa kanya yung knee protector ko kaso mukhang hindi nya susuotin yun..

.

noon madalas kaming mag away ng asawa ko. kase malapit na lang daw kaya di na sya mag hehelmet.... naku....... buti ngayon naintindihan na nya yung safety sa pagmomotor. up...up....up...
