:cool:

I know nothing about Fulmer helmets...anyone wear one? Any experience?

buzzcutt2 02-12-2009 05:45 PM

No idea...but congrats!!

ZUKIMON 02-12-2009 06:22 PM

Sweet! Way to go. I have a Fulmer and I personally like it, but it's no match for my Shoei either. That's understandable but even still, I think they are a good helmet for the price. :)

good score,
hey it's freee!

I don't have any experience with Fulmers but I used to ride with a couple of guys that liked them. :idk:

I just registered at rockthegear.org a few months ago...that's all. :dthumb:

LittleTaz 02-12-2009 07:57 PM

I have one as a back up helmet. Works fine, it's pretty comfortable, but no competition for my Scorpion

Too cool, congrats!! Ive seen them, they have some killer designs, but not sure how they measure up to other brands.

smileyman 02-13-2009 12:56 PM

Heavier than most, good comfy interiors, wind noise. Nice buy for the price. I actually owned 2-3 Fulmers but only used them while racing dirt track cars:idk: Never crashed a bike with one on. I looked seriously at the Cheiftan model before I lucked into my KBC at a much reduced price...Oh and BTW, YOUR SO LUCKY!!!!

Mr Lefty 02-13-2009 01:01 PM

Congrats!

tallywacker 02-13-2009 02:42 PM

I have a fulmer as my second helmet. They a good value from what I can tell. Of course I haven't bounced my head of the pavement with one either.

Amorok 02-13-2009 02:46 PM

They're decent helmets for the price range. I've ridden in one, awesome graphics, good build quality and airflow. Noisy and a little heavy, nothing as bad as a Z1R but not as light as my Scorpion. Good score.

Sweet deal.

I bought mine localy and I know the guy at the shop so he let me have it a little cheaper than list. I think I gave $100 even for mine. Like I said, it's a cool helmet for the money, but it's no SHOEI. :rockout: I'm not above using it in the summer but the Shoei is warmer for cooler riding.

I used it today...for a VERY short ride...it was loud but it was also really windy out...which is why the ride was so short. :td:

ZUKIMON 02-16-2009 01:38 AM

As stated above, they are a little louder than most. I still like them though. :) Sux that you had to cut short over the wind. Hell, it's windy here on a good day.

When I won the helmet she asked me to send some pictures of me with the helmet so I knew I wanted to do that today...we went to the beach and it was SO windy and cold. After that (and cutting my hand) I was all fuck it and we went home. By very short ride I mean something like 5 miles. :lol: :panic:

ZUKIMON 02-16-2009 02:40 AM

Yeah well, the 5 miles you got in today was better than the 25 I did on the couch. :D

:lol: Yeah...it is nice to get out regardless of the distance. Especially since it is suppose to rain tomorrow. :td: My day off...fantastic. :(

ZUKIMON 02-16-2009 10:45 AM

It frickin' snowed here last night. Didn't amount to anything and is basicly gone now, but it still sux that it's that cold here still. blaaaaaaaahhhh.......

marko138 02-17-2009 01:52 PM

Anyone know how the noise level of this helmet compares to the Suomy Vandal? That sucker is LOUD.

ZUKIMON 02-17-2009 06:01 PM

I can't remember how loud mine is. To tell you the truth........my Katana was so loud that it didn't matter what helmet I had on, my ears would still ring. :D I was looking over mine last night and it's really not that heavy compared to my Shoei RF-800. I know that the Shoei isn't a new model helmet, but I just don't feel that either of these are that heavy.

Amorok 02-23-2009 04:23 PM

Earplugs FTW.
