I wear an older model bell half helmet with shield, are the new carbon fiber helmets lighter, and the idea of measuring your head above the ears insure you a good fit?

Cyborg, I havent done much investigating I came here first, the base price was 2590 plus extras, and destination and set up fees. I dont know but have heard there wasnt much markup so they were staying pretty close to price, if so that would be around 20% discount on end of year stock.

I am kinda new around here, I own a tao tao 50 and i love it and love scootin, it hasnt taken much to keep it going with the help from these forums. That being said the Yamaha dealer is offering pretty good deals on a zuma 50 1 light model for a little over 2000, I am entertaining the idea. Anyone can chime in on what to expect from a new Zuma compared to my tao tao, any comments would be appreciated.

Also think there is a lot of BS about thing that have to be done before you ride or soon after you do ride. Before my scooter i had a chinese dirt bike didnt have any knowledge for any forum, took it out of the crate put it together and rode it hard andhad no problems.
