"Sometimes you just twist throttle, dump clutch, and go. No questions, no drama, no repercussions. Thats livin' Speed Cretin. All fink'd up with nowhere to go. True motorcycling passion. True internal combustion. True piston slappin fury. Be Speed-Live Speed. If you're feeling really frosty throw on the included FSB fin kit for a little bit of what the French call "a certain, I don't know what". Ridiculous? Perhaps - but deep down you know you love it. Available only in green as it further enrages the haters."

I think ICON generally markets their stuff towards a group of riders who normally wouldn't wear gear. In that regard, I think that's a good thing -- at least letting people know that you don't need to be in 1-piece race leathers, that you can have something stylish (subjective) that can protect you (subjective) as well.

not my thing but I can see it working for some people...kudos to icon for making reasonably priced gear for squids...icon may not be the best gear out there but it is better then no gear....which is their target market...squids who don't wear gear....
Looked like it could have been... but he went by kinda quickly... on the rear wheel. Loud as shit. It looked lik a clown bike, but really kind of cool looking clown bike... if you're into that kind of thing.Quote:

did you finish that box of AppleJacks?
Yes, made with real Apples.
I saw the PU rep on the road last week and he was showing these. In person, it really is just a whacked out helmet.
Maybe I'm too old, but I really don't get it. Looks like it should be worn by a Spiderman character.
Yeah, my first thought was "wow, does that thing come with a cape?"Quote:

I'd wear it. Hell, if anyone can find a street legal version of this:

... I'd wear that, too. Imagine the look on a kid's face when you stop next to them (looking like some superhero) and give em' a wave. If a biker dressed as the Rocketeer passed me on the street I would definitely laugh hysterically for the remainder of the day. Its all in good fun. I'd rock the hell out of the horn helmet.
