Title: What size helmet for a chick?
Post by: masterh on July 13, 2009, 07:44:54 PM
So I don't have a gf but I am working on couple girls right now.
I'd like to give girls ride in my back whenever it's possible since they love it and it's easy to build rapport that way  [roll]
So I need an extra helmet for this purpose.

should I get M to be safe? or S? I will never carry a fat chick though lol

This is a hard one to answer.  I guess if I had to give an answer, I'd say medium.  But keep in mind that head sizes differ vastly even among people of the same "build".  I say medium only because it's the middle of the road.  Good luck on your quest to get "two-up" [evil] [thumbsup]

my chicks should fall under size 4 (yes clothing)
so I guess medium should be ok just in case I carry a tall chick.
I hope the helmet carries 1st chicks scent so the 2nd chick will get jealous as hell  [evil]

so don't you guys keep an extra helmet for a chick anyways? too bad if you chopped your tail!
The scientific study (done by me lol ) says females are more likely to be attracted to men as they hold your waist, lean her head on your back, feel the vibration from the seat and hears the roaring sound. Happy riding to happy ending  [beer]

Maybe you should figure out a way to have a side car so you can have the two girls fight over who gets to hold on to you.  Then once they are all hot and bothered go back to your parents place so they can fight it out in some baby oil.  Best of luck and play on playa.

Post by: Ducatista on July 14, 2009, 02:51:18 AM
Not to be serious about a truly comical thread, but don't think that having a poorly fitting helmet offers any protection to the rider.  If the inside of the lid isn't touching all parts of your noggin equally, your head will collide with the inside of the helmet and then the helmet will localize pressure, instead of distributing it evenly, like it is supposed to.  So just because a girl with a small head can wear a medium helmet, do you really want her vomiting on you because she got a concussion?  Not my idea of a romantic night. 
Title: Re: What size helmet for a chick?
Post by: semyhr on July 14, 2009, 03:00:49 AM
I would say small, if it's like a general helmet size + get a spare pair of gloves as well. Those should be small as well most likely.

Maybe get a few helmets, gloves and jackets and put three or four lockers in your garage for the gear. You could put tape on the locker doors and label them with random girl names. That should do wonders for the ladies who visit and want to go for a ride.

I really like the idea of getting multiple lids just in case. If it don't fit, it don't work to keep your brains safe. Considering that you can get a DOT full-face lid for under $100, that seems like a good investment to me. Don't forget the rest of the gear. It really pisses me off to see a guy in his leather and gloves and boots with someone else on the back of the bike with just a lid. Show her respect, take her shopping for some gear. If you don't respect her enough to see to it that she is safe when riding with you, you don't deserve to have her on the bike with you in the first place.

Seriousness aside, this thread has me laughing my ass off... [popcorn]

Actually, New Enough had a sale on Scorpion EXO-400s recently where they were something like $50 a pop. You could have gotten both a medium and a small for barely more than $100.

I feel that the jacket is just as important as the helmet if not more. In the 4 accidents I've been in I've only hit my head once but I've torn up the sleeves on two jackets. Then use the jacket as the glass slipper. If they're too big to fit the jacket, they're probably bigger than me and the bike doesn't like having that much weight on the tail since it screws up the weight distribution. See, you're supposed to use the bike as the excuse not to take fat girls because it ruins handling. It sounds less vain.    [laugh]

Post by: JustDucky on July 14, 2009, 07:38:22 AM
Appearing vain definitely seems to be a concern here...... [laugh]

No real advice to offer but its been a good mid day laugh for me.

Good luck.  And consider an XS in addition to S & M (helmet sizes - no really).

It's not gear related.  It's chick related.  Which is sorta like bike related.  They both like to be ridden hard, etc.  So, it really belongs in general.

depending on if certain AA battery powered appliances are used, it could qualify under moto specific. If that's the case, I'd want the details. Then it'd be Riding Techniques.

As long as this girl talk doesn't end up in accessories and mods, we're gravy.  ;D

I hate to have to point this out, but there is no correlation whatsoever between the amount of fat on a girl and the size of her head.  You might be able to make an argument for general frame size, but fat doesn't usually accumulate around the head, so you can have a 300 lb girl with a tiny head or a 100 lb girl with a huge one. 

<- wears a large helmet

This thread made my night.  Buy a few helmets for like $50 each (KBC sale at motorcycle superstore!) in different sizes and some gloves.

OP, what are you going to tell your "chick" when she asks what kind of Suzuki you have?

I suspect he's going to strap said spare helmet on the back in case he picks up a girl, so having multiple helmets doesn't work. Not that the original premise works either.

Yeah, I also found myself wondering if he's ever gotten to take anyone "chicks" for a second ride after opening his mouth.

I was going to go drop a helmet over one of our hens then snap a photo when she poked her head out the eyeport, but then I remembered the LCD on my camera is borked. Oh, well.

You're going to need a new rear shock, not just a helmet, to get that one to go for a ride.
