Re: What are you listening to.....right now?

We got freecom 4 helmet intercoms for christmas.

We are now bluetooth bonded...apparently.

I could sorta justify a damper to compliment the bark busters but wonder how effective it would be in a collision. I guess the damper would lock t...

Im sure my father would have said the same in his time but engineering materials have become prohibitively expensive recently with global demand. To mount a steering damper today I will use $40 ...
