You probably wouldnt be too far from the truth though, bloody nanny country seriously.
Ive since decided, or opted, not to pursue a bluetooth helmet and am instead looking at the HJC IS-16 or 17, or the Shark Vision R
I go every year, good thing about having a holiday house at San Remo!!
I thought the tyre problems added another element to the whole spectacle, it mixed it up a bit especially the having to change bikes part. Who knows, it could be come a feature :p
Hey all, just trying to do some research on whether there are any bluetooth fitted helmets for sale within Australia, or do we have to source them from overseas like in America and then not have an Australian Standards helmet??
Ive been looking at

Ive asked a few dealers the same question, and that was "which size bike is generally selling the most these days for learners?" and all of them basically said the bigger capacity restricted bikes ie. 500cc+ were outselling the smaller 250-300cc bikes easily and the market had changed.
Yeh i...
Ok so ive been on these forums for awhile but only joined up the other day.
30 year old male living in Melbourne, going to take the leap and get my learners in the first qtr of next year and plan on buying an FZ6R.

Is this correct? And if so, does that mean for the remainder...
Hi guys, in the next couple of months I'll be getting my license and bike and besides the cost of the bike, what other associated costs will I encounter with the initial purchase. I'm talking rough estimates for equipment, rego (if needed) insurance etc etc.
