Who is Sons of Saban?

Many bikers are big fans of the "Sons of Anarchy." I would venture a guess as to say that we all know the logo.

I would like to direct you to this link: Sons of Saban

Below is the actual Sons of Anarchy logo:

Just saying, but I think I would rather have the Saban Tattoo.

Saxon Pesko ordered some of our Devil Motorcycle Helmet Horns.  He sent us this image:

I am no fashion cop, but I think Saxon has a future as a helmet designer.  Also, Saxon has got to be the coolest first name ever!

Skunk Motorcycle Helmet

We had a call today from a customer wanting a Skunk Motorcycle Helmet.  We have 100's of motorcycle helmets, but of course she wanted one that we did not have.  We were able to "kind of" help her.

Step 1: Materials Needed
Black & White Acrylic "fun"fur
Heavy Duty Velcro, adhesive backed
Hot glue gun
Utility knife Helmet.
Classic Motorcycle Helmet

You will need about 1/3 yard each of black and white fun fur. I also saw a nice, furry bath rug that would be neat, only I didn't want to spend $20 on it just to cut it up. Check thrift stores for rugs or old jackets. The fun fur is $12 a yard at JoAnn Craft Stores. Unfortunately, it has a "Grain" to it, and it runs across the fabric bolt, so if you buy an 8-inch, full-width strip, the grain runs perpendicular to the direction you need it. I simply cut the pieces short, then glued them together. It is much easier to cut the fur with a utility knife than with scissors- the scissors cut the long hairs off, while the blade only slices through the backing. The scissors are for cutting the Velcro.

You can find the full instructions on the internet at the  instructables Website

Me Want Cookie

What happens when we get in new products?  

The above image is one of our warehouse guys driving the forklift with our new Cookie Monster Helmet Cover.

Personally, I did not notice the Cookie Monster Helmet Cover first, I noticed the shoes.  How does a warehouse employee afford a pair of $145 New Balance shoes? How much are they making out there?  Am I underpaid?  Do they actually think they work harder then me?

Also, who buys a green forklift? I don't think I have ever seen a green forklift before. What is wrong with this place?  Is anyone looking to hire a smart ass to write on a blog?

Duck Dynasty Biker Beard

Are you a fan of Duck Dynasty?  Are you a Motorcycle Rider?  Do you have money that you just want to waste on a Beard? 

We will accept your money if you answered yes to any of the above questions.  These HD Employees obviously make way too much money since they both bought our Bikers Beards.  But hey, we love costumers like this. 

Come on down to our Ghetto location and we can put a Duck Dynasty Biker Beard on you too!

Top 6 Reasons to Wear a Motorcycle Helmet

People are always looking for reasons to wear Motorcycle Helmets.  

While the use of motorcycle helmets "might" reduce the risk of a fatality during a crash, there are still those who choose to ride without this important safety gear. Here are the top reasons why you should wear a helmet every time you get on your bike.

It Might be the law in your state. 
In some communist states, all motorcyclists and their passengers are required to wear a helmet that meets the specifications of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), the Snell Memorial Foundation or the Federal Department of Transportation.

Motorcycle Helmets Reduce the Risk of Head Injuries
In 2003, Pennsylvania repealed a law that required motorcyclists to wear a helmet. A University of Pennsylvania (I did not know Pennsylvania had a college besides Penn State) study found that although helmet usage decreased by only 24%, head injury fatalities increased by 66% and hospitalization for head injuries increased by 78%.

They increase Viability
Because motorcycles are so much smaller than other vehicles, motorists may not see them before making a turn or switching lanes. Fortunately, some motorcycle helmets feature reflective surfaces, making you more visible to other drivers; even if you are wearing black!

They Deflect Debris
When you’re riding behind another vehicle, rocks and other debris can be kicked up into your face. At other times, dust can get in your eyes, making it difficult to see. By wearing your helmet, you can avoid these hazards.


Communication
Helmets fitted with radios aid communication between riders. They can also be wired for music.

Climate Control
In winter, helmets keep out the cold. At all times of year, they keep out the constant wind that contributes to fatigue and cold. In summer, they reduce sunburn and help prevent dehydration by allowing sweat time to cool your skin.

What color is Matte?

We get many questions via e-mail.  I would venture a guess to say that we get at least 20 questions a day about motorcycle helmets and about motorcycle helmet shipping.

I have always heard that there are no stupid questions.  I will be the first to tell you that whomever wrote that saying was stupid.  There are stupid questions.  We are going to start a new blog segment called stupid questions.  I don't think anyone actually reads our blog, so we probably won't offend anyone.

Today's stupid question comes from (censored by the boss):

What color is Matte?
