Burappa Bike Week is among several a well known bike week a.k.a bike fest in Thailand and in this region, all type of bikes are welcomed and most of all everybody who love bikes are most welcomed.
The bikes here all killing e ecspecially the choppers,thailand made chopper for me are the best and the brutallest(english and malay hehe) among all choppers in our region,compare to malaysia,we also do have chopper builder like attanaz of locklaq ,but in Malaysia,the law prohibited outlaw custom machine to be in the road and only certain customisation can make it on the road,so attan maybe our time will come and custom outlaw style choppers will rule the road.hahaha( for this i must be jump into politic and become minister of transportation)
I'll blog about the scene of custom bike in malaysia later,but now i'm only promoting the Burappa bike week in Thailand next year (13-14th February 2009)
PUTRAJAYA: Half-shell helmets may soon be taken off shelves in motorcycle accessories shops.
This is recent newspapers cutting from local malaysian newspapers,Starting January 2009 ,half helmet is illegal to use in Malaysian Road(sound like Illegal Immigrant but better than the malay word diharamkan:more sound haran food hehe).So the shop that selling this half helmet also directed to syop selling the helmets.Do you know why the helmets is ordered to be illegal in malaysian Road users.Just look at the picture aboved.
As far as i known,there is several type of half helmet,if you are bikers and you use helmet you know what i mean,there is type of helmet that is very simple made and the helmet is really cannot be use for motorcycle,even on the helmet itself there is warning saying that "Not for motorcycle"maybe its only use for by cycle users.The safety of the said helmet is very low..like apollo helmet.The fiber layer is so thin and easyly crack when fell down,just imagine what happened to your head??
This type of helmet ehmm its not half helmet but poodle helmet,ususally the easyriders and choppers riders like to use this type of helmet.Its a style but the safety hmmm....judge it by yourself..
as i mentioned before there is lot of type half helmet we can look in the market,i've used several type of it and the better one is SGV Rider,i considered it as not so hal helmet,its a hybrid between open face helmet and half helmet.The pattern is just like SL 55 Red Flame abovedEven you are using the full face or open face helmet but you using it improperly,so its just like you're not using a helmet heheh
The banned of half helmet or in collocial word helmet kura kura(kura kura is tortoise:maybe some parties just wanna call it kura kura bcause the shape of the helmet hehe)
Half helmet,yea its look like turtle hard cover or sometimes its look like G.I armies helmet..the reason says that why is this helmet gonna be banned in Malaysian road its because the unsafe of this helmet to the users.Considered its just half and its not covered the user neck and when accident occurred it maybe cause a grievous hurt to the users,and maybe bring death.
U.S Army helmet: Don't use it for riding
I used to use this type of helmet,i have two type of this helmet,actually this half helmet i use when i'm only riding in a short distance,when i'm going to office,to my friend house,to go for coffee and other short journey.I'm only using the open face helmet for long distance ride..the reason is when using this helmet its easy to open and easy to put in the bike basket or put anywhere you want.
Beside half helmet/tortoise helmet(heheh) there is alternative helmet you can use as its more safety and covered your head.
1.fullface helmet
2.Openface helmet.. i did write an articel about helmets in my forum. Its in malay and i write the type of helmets and the pro and contra of each helmet from poodle helmet to open face helmet.Its better you buy and use an expensive and full safety helmet because its do really protect your head and protect your life.
In malaysia i really dont understand that why some bikers ecspecially teenagers that ride kapchai(underbone bikes) ,like to use cheap ,unsafe helmet(like apollo Ms 88: I know it based from the sticker on the helmet) and some other type which the helmet look very unsafe and very thin fiber.I did ask some kid using this helmet and his answer is..it a trend among teen bikers today,its cheap,when the helmet lost or somebody stole it,you dont felt any lost enough..
.hmm..whatever...But better protect your head with good helmet.not with that cheap and lousy one..buy an expensive and good helmet.Which one is important? Your Life or your helmet??
Sorry mr tortoise:i pronounce your name in the blog.I'm not gonna kill you for shell hahahahha
