You may want to consider this but please do not get offended Just dont compromise safety and you will be good to go again.

    Modern helmets are constructed from plastics, often reinforced with kevlar or carbon fiber. They generally have fabric and foam interiors for both comfort and protection. Motorcycle helmets are generally designed to break in a crash (thus expending the energy otherwise destined for the wearer's skull), so they provide little or no protection after their first impact. Note that impacts may, of course, come from things other than crashing, such a dropping a helmet, and may not cause any externally visible damage. For the best protection, helmets should be replaced after any impact, and every three or so years even if no impact is known to have occurred.


    Yohooo! Color coding ako sa Monday so I can take my bike to work!!!
    oh yeah good thing you reminded me to get another helmet, I also had it banged Nov. 7 last year..

    PK,

    Glad to hear you are ok, and that you were able to keep your cool.

    Sorry bout the damage to your bike, though...

    Maporma nga yung 'full battle gear', and it saved your life too!

    Speaking of helmets, my bike helmet also saved me from head injury around 2 months ago when my mountain bike hit a deep but small canal and I was thrown off the bike. Gasgas lang din sa helmet and wala akong na-feel na sakit sa ulo ko.

    PK, glad you got out of the accident and survived it.
    buti na rin at hindi ka na-trauma, other people would sell their bikes after their first accident.

    enjoy your MC and stay safe.

    In true MotoGP fashion, i immediately got up and headed towards the fx.

    Buti na lang, the driver was very very apologetic and never once tried blaming me or by god, he wouldve gotten a taste of carbon fiber knuckled gloves.
    AFAIK, dapat po pagbagsak nyo hindi po dapat tayo agad, sit and check around you then check for injuries and try to compose yourself before comfronting. BTW, here's an exerpt from an article on motorcycle accidents:

    "Adrenaline
    It takes about 3 seconds for adrenaline to be introduced into the bloodstream and the effects to felt all over the body. This hormone will make you act irrationally; cause your hands to shake and dexterity to decrease. It will cloud your mind and make you focus on the imminent and blur your view of the big picture. You must first realize that you are under an adrenaline rush and try not to panic. Breathe deeply, take a seat, and whatever you do don’t try to figure out who is at fault, you will only say something stupid, or worse, get in a fight."

    Maybe it will all depend on how often you use it in the 5-7 year lifespan. My AXO carbon fibre full face showed signs of deterioration(cracks) in the lamination on its third year of weekend use (every sunday) jetskiing. Its usually the lower front portion that gets the beating of the handlebar so no problem but I decided on changing to a bike fullface downhill helmet which is lighter, cheaper, well ventilated and serves my purpose.
    For motocycle use I won't wear the AXO anymore (i go trail riding in my atv on the side).

    Thanks for the kind words guys!

    On the helmet, yup, that's one of the things im actually looking forward to hehe. I always wanted a Caberg Rhyno.

    All of my cuts had bruises and things started to hurt last saturday, but the major bump on my hip is virtually gone. It just gave me an excuse to skip work today haha!!!

    I figured, if i was on a 900RR or R1, i wouldve made it :evillaugh

    Hehe just kidding.

    Thanks again guys, really appreciate it!

    Ride safe!

    *boybi, HAHAHAHAHA!!!!

    Stock pipe ako kasi naiinis ako kapag maingay. But seriously youve got a point. the stock honda pipe is virtually silent if heard from the front.
