Default Got the wife a new helmet last weekend...

as I realized the one whe was wearing was a bit too big after she told me she couldn't see anything at freeway speed. I took her out on the freeway last night and she could see everything fine. I am a happy man. It doesn't get much better than riding with your best friend daily.

...yeah, until she gets so into it that you're never allowed to go riding alone any more! My girl is hooked, so now she gets jealous if I want to go ride without her. That kinda kills most of my opportunities for hotrodding! But, Anubis, I'm glad you've got a good riding partner that you enjoy being with.

Agreed!

But I'm trying to figure out what was happening to the helmet that would cause her to be unable to see on freeways yet not obvious enough to know the problem was w/ the helmet's size... I mean it wasn't being blown around her head so the visor was at the rear, right? But glad its fixed.

They've gotta fit. That's why so many are on the market. My wife's still waiting to ride on our new one, maybe this weekend.

I'm with you, man. There's no one I'd rather ride with then my wife.

She wears a fullface so it was sort of bouncing up and down giving her double vision. She is a fullface gal.

I went w/ a modular full face recently, love it. Glad she's been taken care of, and I'm with you as well, my wife is the [ONLY] one I love to ride with.
