ok so 2 guys at my work have gotten into riding and keep hounding me with questions, which im happy to answer. but they never like my answers lol. they are both bugging me about gear. one guy said he went to a helmet shop to get a helmet but walked right back out when he saw they were around 250$ for a 'good' one. he then went to walmart and saw(they actually do have a motorcycle section) that they had helmet for 50 bucks or less. he said thats the helmet hes getting, after explaining the helmet is your most important protection why go cheap? he said a more expensive helmet is a waste of money they both are helmets.... i just said why even bother then save the 50$ if money is so important and go no helmet.
then he went on to complain about a 400$ leather riding suit and looked at me funny when i said that was cheap. the one guy is just the kinda person thats just so cheap it doesnt make sense. he keeps begging me for gear like im just going to give away my stuff cause hes cheap?
but anyways, i just dont get peoples thinking when they want protection... but then buy the cheapest most generic stuff out there. if you cant afford the gear(or maintence etc.) your into the wrong hobby i think.
