I just watched the VW Jetta ads for the South Africa. It is a fun ads to watch. The two riders taking a ride with their classic bike (I think it Kawasaki) to meet their rider friends. On the way there, many things happens to them. Falling into river, getting dust to their face and many more.

Arai has released their lineup for 2012 full-face helmet in EICMA in Milan. This is the upgrade from the popular Arai Axces. New features of this Axces II includes new Super Fiber Composite (SFC) shell, larger visor opening, better ventilation system and comfortable interior.

The Super Fiber Arai is patented specifically for Arai and happens to be one of the best fiber glass in terms of resistance, which has been used in aerospace and defense in military application. It is 40% stronger than ordinary fiber glass in the market for now.  The inner impact absorbing shell is made from three different density parts in single element, rather than having three different density parts in three different elements. “Hyper Ridge” stiffening ribs inside the shell further enhance the strength of the helmet outer shell.  (more…)

I’m now liking helmets with high visibility colours like this one from HJC in Flourescent Yellow. This high visibility colours have two function that I know. One, it is for safety since this colour is very visible from far especially at night. A simple glimpse of light can easily make this helmet visible. The other thing that I know is that this colour so much beautiful and looks very unique since not many riders are using this colour in Malaysia yet. There are also SGV yellow helmet that many riders used, but that also hard to find since it is always sold out.

HJC helmets are also popular since it is the one Jorge Lorenzo used in MotoGP racing.
