Helmet storage

[eliteguy50]

How do you store your helmet?
In a bag? A box? On a shelf? Under a seat? .....

I have a nice helmet bag that I put the helmet in and then store the bag in the scooter gear box.

always place it in a cloth like bag then place it in a box..

there are little kids in our place so i have to keep it in a place the kids will not reach..

You hit the nail on the head. I use to keep my main helmet under a bench by the door. My nephew decided that there was too much stuff in my helmet and stripped it down to the styrofoam shell. I used to use bags but they were stolen out of the back of my pickup years ago. Now I am trying to figure out what I should get to finally replace them.

An extended cab truck gives you tons of space for your helmet and a wide array of other items.

I ended up selling the truck and getting an SUV.

So you bought a station wagon.

They live up on a high shelf. The ones I use often don't get bagged anymore, but the backups (both mx helmets) stay in the bag for now.

My "station wagon" can go anywhere on this island that doesn't require a boat, has towed out many 4wd "trucks", the backseat can fit large adults, and it's 100% lockable. Not to mention subzero AC, and room to spare even after the stereo system.
Sure there are alot of unibody poser SUV's out there, but there are still a few that have a full frame design, dedicated low range gears, and stock skidplates that aren't made of plastic.
4r ftw!

It is still a station wagon, regardless of the drive system under it or whatever cute name the manufactures stick on it to make your ego not shrivel when owning one.

Hah, typical Bear. So what awe inspiring manly man's truck do you drive? I'm guessing big, old, and american. Pieces of crap in my opinion, I'll take a "station wagon" any day

I have 2 trucks, a 1999 Ranger XLT with 4.0 for the light stuff like towing the ski boat or taking the quads to the trail head. Then for the real work I have a 1986 F250 heavy duty (a light duty 1 ton) with a warmed over 460 and a 4.10 rear end for the camper or any one of my two dual axle trailers. Both trucks are extended cabs.

A Bronco XLT would be better compared to a convertible than any wagon. Next will be an Excursion though. I had a '79 F-250 with a 460 and dual lockers, from back when they made real trucks using fully boxed frame rails. The best mud truck I ever owned.

Yeah, they had carbs so you could hot rod them easily.

[eliteguy50]

Carbs? With the smog crap from back then, it took a lot more than just a carb to bring it to where a 460 should be. But the EPA would not like if I typed any details.

They suck * and don't scare me. A straight up timing set instead of the post 1972 emissions 4┬░ retarded set and a high lift RV cam. A good set of 9.5 to 1 pistons, some exhaust port work, recurved dist. and a small tube set of headers plus a non-emissions Holley carb reworked by me. Picked up 2.5 mpg and the low end throttle response is amazing.
