So some guys will start saving on their PC or FMF pipes. I think $800 exhaust system are crazy for amateur and leisure riding.

So much for that "competition will bring the prices down" theory.

It's a cheaper model with no adjustments. The price remains the same on the models already out.

It's a lot cheaper to just wear a wheelbarrow tire and tube around your neck.

I hate the inflation rate on these products lately. This whole "you pay for safety" theory is bullsh!t.

(_insert sarcasm here_) Good job Alpinestars.

Bubble wrap and duct tape.

Simple, effective and more attractive.

And, think of the satisfying popping sound when you lawn dart into the face of that triple.

mmmm......bubble wrap popping sounds....mmmmm

(Triples? Thats why I don't wear a Leatt. When I ride on a track, there are no tripples. Just a never ending series of singles and table tops)

the price for that is rediculous, they're going in the wrong direction. Leatt is making good products for cheaper, while alpinstars comes out with a more expensive imitation. (I blogged about this a few months back: Check it out here

I got a red & black EVS Race Collar.. Real comfortable!!! & inexpensive ($180). Im not sure that it works because i havent fell down yet but it seems pretty logical that it would work as it doesnt allow my head turn any more than 50degrees with my helment on.Cool
