I will also say, it could be said that if the helmets where so sensitive
to accidental impact, they would never leave the factory with such
minimal padding, that is they would have more padding than just a card
board box.

Any thoughts on that??

yes, that came to mind as well, but I figured I would pull out the
test ride card as I am thinking about getting another bike in the spring
in all of my stars allign.

Cool, I've had the ST out for the last couple of days myself. Too bad about having
to work though :-( And of course I have yet another gas leak :-( Last tank of gas I
managed 177 miles out of slightly less than 5 gallons (US) of gas. About 35 mpg,
not very good. My ST never saw over 50 mpg, but has seen 46-48 often.
