Went for a ride in the hills a few days ago. Managed to dodge the snow but was still abit chilly.

I'm guessing your helmet doesn't have pin lock.

That was my mate. It doesnt but its fogged up because he heard me taking a pic and didnt want his face in it so made it do that.

We get it, he vapes!

Jokes aside, 10/10 recommend pin locks. Mmm. Visibility... drools

I know that feel, after I got my pinlock I don't know how I managed to ride without one xD

Well, you can mouth-breathe at a traffic light and it doesn't fog at all. If your rides involve slow stop-and-go traffic I'd heavily recommend it, but otherwise it might not make a big difference to you.

They aren't too pricey, so they would really be worth it in my opinion.

Not the best picture I know but unfortunately we couldn't stay long due to the young couple in the steamed up micra having some fun next to us.

The one in the snow is the same one in this picture. I have yet to see another one in the north west

The engine and bike look in great condition. I've seen one or two round here.
