The TMAX is an amazing fusion – a maxi-scooter that is big fun to ride on any kind of road – totally at home on city streets, on twisting country roads and in themotorway fast lane. So it was no surprise that so many riders fell in love with its intoxicating blend of performance and practicality, discovering that one bike really can do it all.

DESAIN
On the whole this the motor that was good with the design that was enough to be different from the sport motor most, but good him was not special. Sweet indeed with neat details. The alternative that was good for the lover of the sport motor. However that also must be paid attention to by the TVS side was the matter of the service after sales.

Helmets of motor bike
Helmets of motor bike
Your brain is soft, your head is fragile, the road is hard. Sometimes the unfortunate occurs and your head meets the road. Not good. Helmets of motor bike were you conceived to protect our fragile heads and soft brains, but how choose you the best? Is it better expensive? Be certain estimates the proof that we must know that we are sure evil?
Test of helmet of motor bike
The magazine of motorcylcist made a great article on helmets explaining in detail the current ideas on the design of helmet. If I can recapitulate their prolonged article:
- Our brain is damaged by the fast deceleration which occurs when our heads carry out asphalt. The deceleration, measured in G, indicates to how much force our brain is subjected. Little G is better. (No surprise there) the acceptable levels vary considerably among various systems of estimate. (Slightly astonishing)
- The kinds of accidents which the majority of the riders think that they need protection against are not the kinds of accidents which usually occur. The majority of the accidents are at fallback speed and close to the house caused by cars withdrawing in front of the motor bike. After having slowed down and ensabot�having ensabot� it is often below 25mph.
- Snell evaluated helmets must completely pass (two blows in the same place) a very difficult test to the difference in the collisions of real-world and construction necessary to pass the test results in higher forces of G transmitted to the head than is considered sure by the majority of each one other than Snell. (Great surprise)
- The hard external shell of the helmet is protected from abrasion and the penetration by the pointed objects. The penetration is the minor of your concern in an accident. Interior lining of increased polystyrene, the ENV, is what slows down your head to the bottom of a ordered fashion and is most important in an accident.
- The price does not have any relation at which point with the work of helmets to reduce G 's.
If you are one of the free turn, forget that the crowd then very of helmet of this is useless information. If you evaluate your brain and think that a helmet could be handy in an accident, it is critical.
The motorcylcist examined 16 helmets, a relatively small number compared with the number of helmets on the market but to show some differences enough.
CAUTION: Do not jump to the conclusions or made not the judgements precipitated on the basis of this study. There was no true losing here.
Honda BEAT
