When I got my first Scorpion helmet,everyone said they were cheap Chinese junk. What has changed? Is it because Mat Mlladin wears one now? He wore KBC before,mine cracked from being dropped! If you're such a gear elitist,then why didn't you buy an Arai or Shoei helmet? Is the only worth of a product based solely on it's representatives?
you obviously must sport some icon gear, cause you are taking my post way out of context trying to defend it.


yes, its a matter of taste. and im saying if you wear some of the crap they put out , you have a bad sense of taste. They spend too much time trying to promote a "hardcore rugged im a baddass and i dont care about anything cause im all about skulls and crossbones" look. and i call BS on 90% of the people wearin that stuff actually being badasses.


There is no anger, im just tired of seeing the "Icon Ftw!!!" shit, and it caught me at a bad moment. So i figured if we can have a FTW thread we can have a FTL thread. I may have been a little bitchy because of a hangover, but certainly not angry.


ya i did. and i've never owned a helmet more expensive than 200 dollars. I buy helmets on the basis of style, not brand. i reserve my brand loyalties for motorcycles... go honda.



Im not a gear elitist. i just think people who wear icon because of the "badass" designs and shit are weak, just like the company.
Youre not one of those people are you?

Btw a kid pulled up yesterday to go riding sporting a new Teknics jacket. It was BRIGHT blue and had a huge "T K" on it an goofy stripes going at all angles. ALPINESTARS sells motorcycle riding shoes that look like low top Sketchers and ha a jacket named T-STUNT! Hmmmm....
I said their focus is on their style. i never mentioned anything about their equipment being ill equipped.
