Motorcycling is my bolt hole away from the usual stresses and strains of everyday life.

The Bolt Hole Biker is my little contribution to the world of motorcycling - vlogs, reviews, how to's, trips out, tours...

I like the neck protection of the Helite, but the shoulders seem pretty exposed with this model.

I have been using a leaf blower as a dryer and ACS50, but that is a LOT of product on the bike. I had no idea you could use it on bodywork and the windscreen. I have been just using it on the metal bits. I only used it on the engine case, suspension, and chain. Thanks for the video!

Hey mate great video. Although there is a big mistake in the way you've explained how these vests work. Let me quickly explain. The Electric vest has a sensor that will trigger the airbag based on a multitude of parameters that are being evaluated by an algorithm. One of this trigger is a MINIMUM SPEED THRESHOLD. Which means, if you are standing still at a red light and you get tailgated, the Electric vest will NOT INFLATE as it requires a minimum speed of 20km/h. That's the reason I chose to go for the mechanical one which suits best when using the vest for commuting. Cheers
@bogdanzarnescu6579
@bogdanzarnescu6579 13 дней назад
Nope. 18 km/h without the fork sensor. 0 km/h with the fork sensor. The reason you buy the sensor. If someone hits you between 0 and 18 km/h.

Unlike with upright forks, I think there might be issues with attaching the fork sensor to inverted fork structures. (The Helite fork sensor installation manual video only shows installation on upright forks.) How did you install the fork sensor on your Multistrada? Did you attach it above the fork mudguard to avoid interference? The manual advises against installing it above the fork, so I'm confused.

@TheScortUK

On all my bikes, I sort the alignment - checking along the chain, running the wheel to see if it runs true, and using vernier calipers to make sure both adjusters are aligned. Once you have that sorted, chain tension is a breeze - you just turn your adjuster screws one 'flat' at a time, making sure you add/remove the same number of 'flats' on both sides. Perfect tension, and perfect alignment - only time you need to realign is if you have new tyres fitted.

Good evening dear Triumph friend. I plan to get the same head fairing and therefore I would like to know, which in details clip ons you mounted in this last video. I hate to crush my back, therefore I would be glad to know this product. I will do it on my Thruxton 900 injection. Thanks dear friend, Ralph from Switzerland

What is your measurements and what size helite fits you? I am 5'9" to 5'10" and weigh 178 to 185 pounds. The medium fits me with a TINY bit of wiggle room on my revit jacket while the large fits me loose. Getting mixed fitting guides as many people either say go snugger and some say go looser...

Not discontinued, just in short supply for a little while. One of the Helite UK guys was on the teapot one podcast recently and he specifically mentioned a supply problem with the fork sensor but said it is coming back into stock.

Thanks for the video. I am concerned that the back protector looks like it is rigid. If so, I doubt it can be stored in a top box when off the bike. That would make it unusable for me.

I have two summer jackets, both with back protectors. I don't know if would be better to remove the jackets back protectors and keep the helite back protector or to keep jackets back protectors and remove the helite back protector ( more comfy).
@29203811919
@29203811919 2 месяца назад
If you have the new turtle, on their website helite recommends removing the back protector from your jacket and keeping theirs. The reason for this is that their back protector is over the airbag so it better disperses any impact.
