Comparing helmets664 viewsOn the left is my HJC. It has served me well but way past it's service date. On the right is my new ROOF helmet. It's a round helmet compared to the HJC and has more distinct, unique styling. It's modular, meaning the chin bar can unlock and rotate up and out of the way. The ROOF also weighs 2-ounces less than my HJC, coming in at 1630-grams (Medium size).

628 viewsSo what do you do with the stock clutch cover? Well, you NEVER throw away good parts! Keep them for the next owner or recycle them -- that means you give them to a friend in-need or sell them. Personally, I used mine for a cereal bowl...

The sound of the clutch is now quite audible! The stock clutch cover does a good job at keeping the clutch noise down. If you don't like the dry clutch "music" then keep the stock clutch cover on the bike.

Chin strap system614 viewsThe chin strap uses a locking buckle system that looks just like a lap belt you'd find in an old car or modern airplane. I like it far better than the out-dated D-ring system many helmets still use.

611 viewsUse an 8mm open-ended wrench to crack open the bleeder nipple when bleeding the clutch slave. I used clear tubing, bungeed to the kick-stand, and let it drain into a glass container. I bled my system until fresh fluid appeared. Remember to keep an eye on the reservoir! Oh yeah, you no longer need the plastic wrap cover. When done, make sure the reservoir is about 3/4 full, then insert the rubber boot and secure the cap.

595 viewsOnce the clutch slave is bolted down (10 ft-lbs) pre-fill with DOT-4 brake fluid. I used a syringe and found 6cc to be enough to reach the bottom of the threads. Next, remove the banjo fitting from the stock unit and put it on the new one, torquing it down to 23 ft-lbs.
