   I’m not a feminist, but that idiot saying “wife’s washing machine” is implying that women don’t ride bikes and why can’t it be “your” washing machine? No, it has to be your wife’s.
   I work in a women’s motorbike clothing shop so shut the hell up yourself.

   “I work in a women’s motorbike clothing shop so shut the hell up yourself.” – How on earth does that make your point any more valid? :/

   It doesn’t imply that at all, you’re reading far too much into it. It’s just post-modern irony.. or something. Calm down, we all know women are equal and blah blah.

   Because the shop chain had to be created because other stores weren’t taking in any women’s clothing or very little.
   Basically, the motorbiker world is very male-orientated which is unfair. It’s so difficult to get women’s clothing and here is someone who works in the business basically taking the piss.
   Blokes get annoyed if I make a joke out of the fact most can’t do two things at once.

   It’s just annoying that he’s said that.

    In my experience, people usually buy the solids. There’s a lot of people with the plain black or matt silver helmets, they are pretty ugly designs.

    wow, talk about off topic comments!

    for the video; i’d use laundry soap/detergent. it’s safe for clothes.

    if this video doesn’t suggest it cause it damages the helmet fabric then TOO BAD! the helmet deserves to die if it can’t handle laundry detergent.

    i’m talking about like the brand “all” or something like the liquid soap, or “tide” i suppose.

    i’ve used it on air filters before and it didn’t eat those away.

    why is he manipulating the helmet over a hard surface moving the helmet round and round scratching the finnish, better to put a terry towel down and stand the helmet on the towel to prevent any scratching of the finnish.

    i thought that, but looking at the helmet, it is damaged from an accident. so i can see why hes not putting a towel down

    My helmet came from the shelf….didn’t get the box…with the manual or that Lubricant.

    Do I need that lubricant? Where can I buy it?

    Also, the Comfort Liner, and cheek pads..

    Are the “pads” itself washable in a bowl of water? I’m referring to the padding and not the “cover” of the padding.
