moy Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 (edited) take a look at this mod the visor comes down and up! Edited March 15, 2015 by moy Quote
oshanmacross Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 For those still interested, Masei told me today their blue chrome visors should be ready in 3 weeks.... Quote
lavinrac Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 (edited) I got one of the blue Chrome visors you used. I have a question was all the modifications done to the Masei parts like the top visor and other ad on pieces? Did you have to cut the actual Blue visor at all? Thanks I did not cut the visor at all. I did all modifications to the masei parts. They were already scratched and stuff so i felt safer doing that. Also.. I wonder if Masei can mail a visor without it breaking.

aaajin Posted March 25, 2015 Posted March 25, 2015 For those who got them on eBay for less than MSRP, are they damaged on arrival?. Some people said the ones that were auctioned were the damaged returns. Thinking of getting one..thanks! Quote

UN Spacy Posted March 28, 2015 Posted March 28, 2015 Got my replacement part(s)! It was only supposed to be the visor buuuuut they also sent the other pieces IF I want to make a third helmet. All I need is another white open face helmet. Quote

oshanmacross Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 will there be any macross there at wondercon? Doubt anything good from the 80's Quote
505thAirborne Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 Almost finished with my Mac Zero style Helmet yesterday (a few tweaks here & there), and making final touches to the Armor. Quote

Roy Focker Posted April 6, 2015 Posted April 6, 2015 Funny I saw the same photos posted on Masei's Facebook page by Masei. I'm no motorcycle expert or even a motorcycle novice but I know that claiming you can ride at 100mph with these helmets is a dangerous statement. The actual interior helmet might a real tested helmet but custom Macross style attachment parts does not offer any real protection. They might even cause more injury in high speed crash. Seriously people buy this helmet as a display piece or cosplay. If you're going to ride with in stick to city streets and avoid the freeways. Quote
moy Posted April 6, 2015 Posted April 6, 2015 (edited) dude treat this as a open face helmet i ride with it in town not faster 65mph wind would be to much . well you can go 100mph but onlyif you dont turn your head. Edited April 7, 2015 by moy Quote
skullmilitia Posted April 8, 2015 Posted April 8, 2015 I did 90mph on the freeway with mine and it actually does just fine, unless you start trying to look into the sky (why would you) it's fine for highway riding. I think the strap sucks big time, it's further back then all my other helmets, and rests on my throat. So it won't be used for riding, but 100mph I don't see it being too bad, the plastics to the wind without even vibrating. Quote
moy Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 is that legal to carry a gun while riding that would be cool. Quote
moy Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 (edited) yeah i agree nice combo! Edited April 13, 2015 by moy Quote
Roy Focker Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 That's so illegal where I live. Sure it isn't illegal where you are? People end up getting killed by the police for doing that. Quote
dapro Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 Nice his and her Camaros. That is max and Miria colors too. haha Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 Has anyone gotten amy of the replacement visor or been in recent contact with Masei? I've e-mailed him twice and no answer. Quote
