Pulled Over, WHY ?

Think about it and read the link I posted instead of having posts deleted.

I did think about it. Went away to check and found I was wrong (your link was one of the things I read last night, btw), hence my "please ignore the ********" post above. I've said I was wrong, and said so before you posted so why are you still going on about it?

Sorry, but to my mind it is being pedantic. No doubt others will decide for themselves, not that it's in the slightest bit important to anyone but you.

Are you going to tell the others that mentioned "BMW helmets" before me that they are wrong too or are you just picking on me? And if so why? Actually, don't answer that as I think i know the reason.

Chill out Jabba. You were wrong and you had a post of mine deleted and that ****es me off.

Anyway.....

Ok, I have just had this email from Essex Police.

My questions were is there any law about riding a motorcycle with a flip up chin bar in the up position or riding with the visor up (already proved to be ******** however one of my posts was deleted).



Classification: NOT PROTECTIVELY MARKED

Tim,
Not a silly question .I have heard this rumour as well. There is no
truth in it at this time. We have just re issued our motor cyclist with
this type and it is type approved with the flip front in the open or
closed position.

So, there you have it. As long as the helmet is type approved then you are ok.

Fair question.......maybe a mod will comment?

Doubt that anything that you could have written would have warranted its removal. Server glitch?

Yeah, right!

Anyway, the final answer is 2 posts up.

I've got a BMW lid, but now i'm a bit worried incase i go out in it and get done 'cause it's all in my head.

if i remember right they also make the worlds lightest lid. unless they have been beaten recently.

BMW make helmets ... FACT

No I didn't. Didn't even see it.

You need to think before posting comments like that.
