              Utah is the same way.  No helmet laws.  Personally I wouldn't ride without one, but it a choice.

                  oh and thanks graeme for putting hedon on my radar, trying to figure out if theyre legal here now

                  Are you in Ontario? Apparently ECE lids are legal there since 2012.

                      So are you going to order up a Hedon then @natehate ? If it's any help, they felt as though they had a long oval fit, similar to a Davida lid.

                              That was off the hook!  Wow…..... It takes serious BALLS to ride a motorcycle that fast.

                                The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride in London. If you watch it, you can spot Mark Eley of Eley Kashimoto (in the zig zag suit), and Scott of Dawson Denim.

                                I'd have gone along, only I thought that my Beemer was too modern to fit in with the prevailing vibe.

                                  You should have jumped in!  Looks like it was a good event.  Very cool.

                                    I subsequently heard that there were a few non-Kosher bikes present, so I probably could have got away with it. Maybe next year…

                                      whats your thoughts gents on the triumph scrambler (once the horrible std pipes are ditched for a proper set ) as a town bike .

                                        I have a friend who owns one. He feels it's a bit under powered, but prefers it that way. Casual riding for sure. Personally I'd go with a Bonne if you're ditching the pipes anyway.

                                          they are underpowered  did think about the bonneville as well would have to be the t100 though as i hate mag wheels

                                            i'd go with the thruxton if i was going new triumph. thats a sexy looking machine
                                            however i did hear a few years back when they went from carb to efi they were having some throttle issues and that the english made bikes that are a few years older again are better
                                            but thats just what i hear
                                            could be bullshit

                                            don't you know there ain't no devil? only god when he's drunk!
