Helmet and goggles question

RE: Helmet and goggles question
Thanks to all of you! That Simpson helmet is the same one that I have. I like it, but as I said, it makes funny noises that even taping the vents close doesn't solve.
Right now, deej, she's still riding the trusty (or is that rusty?) old XR100. She's only 5'2", so her choices for a new dual-sport are pretty limited. She's tippy-toed on my Dad's XT225, but she likes it. I've noticed lately that when we go ridding, she's got that poor little 100 pinned WFO most of the time, so I know she can handle some more power. We're looking at an XT225, or a lowered KLX250. I've heard of people re-lacing the wheels on a KLX with smaller rims, but I don't know how that would handle. I'm hoping Kouba links will do the trick.

Always the businesswoman... Good on ya! My wife dreams of having her own womens line of off-road gear. With the few options that are out there, it's sooo hard to find here in Canada.

I knew when I read the post and someone mentioned dirty girls you would be all over it, what's your phone number so I can call your wife and rat on you? Wait what am I saying? Hello my name is deej and I need help. How many times do I have to post this? Well who's counting?
I can stop anytime I want to[&:]
Ok that was the last one...........right after this.
I swear that's it..............hehe I had my fingers crossed. 'I wonder if my wife would let Angelina adopt me?......Whoops was that out loud?"

ORIGINAL: deej
Anyway I got the Scott goggles with the tear-off notches for tear-off film, which if you think about it, thats ironic since I have never gotten mud on my goggles, and didn't get any film anyway. Now that's funny right there.

That is pretty funny! Actually you only need them if you ride behind another rider, so not only do you need to be riding in mud, Mrs. deej would have to be in front of you tearing it up. [8D]
As for the XD Arai, I would buy one but it doesn't fit me right. The L is too small and the XL is too large. I am going to wait for the Shoei Hornet to come to the US as the Shoei Large fits me perfectly.
