I wear a Shoei RF-1100. Fits my head shape perfectly. With 60% of accidents (or something like that) involving a chin strike, I couldn't bring myself to wear anything but a full-face.

I think that's what I meant...

Just finished another trackday at PBIR. it was insanely hot on the black asphalt, no garages, clanky generators everywhere, but went plenty fast (160 indicated..) and no crashes.

My old track! Excellent!

I won some 125 races there, roughly 1000 years ago

Just received a Bell Custom 500 from Motorcycle Superstore. Damn, I love this helmet. I have a few helmets I rotate between, including a Shoei 3/4, Shark modular (just cannot cope with the full face helmet), Cromwell, and Fulmer V2, but will probably wear this Bell almost exclusively now. What helmet do you guys ride with?

A BMW System II helmet -- it's really old. I wonder if I should be thinking of a new one ...

Only if you plan on it actually protecting you if you come off..

I did a track day at NJMP Thunderbolt on Sunday. It was an absolute blast, I am definitely addicted.

Definitely using just about all of the crazily profiled Q2s

Not sure if you can notice the chunks of rubber that are melted into the tire, but this is after the 150 mile ride home.

awesome, did you race with WERA? was that even around 1000 years ago? I might look into amateur racing, but trackdays are enough for me right now.

Kookz, looks great I just switched to Pilot Pures are they are a great tire too.

In the spirit of the adventure many of you will find bicycling equally romantic though it won't be badass: http://www.alastairhumphreys.com/. And gnatty - I do love that site.

Where can one find an unbranded leather jacket with spine, shoulder, and elbow armor built in?
