    No of course not dude, that's what friends are for. There might be a little something extra for you when you turn on the stove but hey who doesn't like surprises

    Hiya Maverick You going to Chelsea Bridge next week? It'll be good to meet you - just need to make sure that I haven't taken over your roll as the S.A. tosser, even if I have the biggest f*%$£&" head!!!

She said "Just about a XXL", I said "Great, not so big then..." she said "Ahmmmmm, almost too big for an XXL" I nearly said "*&%k!!", glad I didn't!! She then suggested a frying pan, well, a big frying pan!! Ha, ha!!

    That's crazy talk.


    A wok would clearly make a better starting point for a helmet.

    Not at all, it's my beer gut that seemingly knows no boundaries.


    Though I really must check to see if there's a page 2 on a thread before replying, in case my dodgy quips have already been used.



    By the way - are you finding the helmets tend to be too small generally, or in any particular direction.

    I seem to find that most helmets aren't deep enough from front to back, so my chin is usually too close to the chinbar, and my nose is pushed up against the visor.

    The flip front helmets are all worse than the fixed front helmets, as the latch mechanism is nearly always in front of the chin.


    My Shoei XR1000 is only an L, yet an XL of the Shoei Synchrotech flip front is too small for me!

    Maybe the Roof Boxer type helmets might be worth a look if you're particularly keen to have a flip up lid - I think they fasten at the sides.

    Fair enough - I only know of one bloke that's got one, and he's happy with his... although he's clearly got no taste - he's even got a KTM.
