ok I know this is an old post..
but please to all motorcyclist out there..
we can say that 80% of death of motorcyclist out there can be prevented with a proper helmet and proper wearing of helmet.
yeap a cheap half helmet/MS88 might seem enough but trust me, it wont protect ur head when u need it.
at least get a Index/LTD helmet. its still around RM50 but its good enough to prevent ur head mating with the hard pavement.
anyway : i have a MHR Fullface flipup helmet for sale, RM300 la best price, check my thread.
i involved in an accident before,
pitch black, 2am in the morning,
right after a corner exit,
a tree has fallen across the road.. (covers both lanes)
cant do anything about it..since i was travelling at approx 70kmh..
want avoid also dunno where to go,
i did hard brake, but cannot stop completely since everything was so sudden as i just exited a sharp corner..
i hit the tree, right on my face
it feels like somebody take a baseball bat and hit you on the face..
my visor broke.
my tooth also broke..
luckily i still can handle the motorbike well,
since it was a fir tree (pokok rhu), it is flexible and i could ride through it..
thank god it was not a solid wood.. if not, i could fly already..

i was wearing open face KHI during the accident.
9 am in the morning, i straight away go see dentist.. repair my tooth, and it cost me RM300..
well, the money to repair my tooth can buy me a fullface already..
haha.. anyways, since that incident, i wear fullface helmet even go buy burger..
i ride kapcai only.. ppl always stare me.. but i dont care at all..
