BikerScoutAlexx Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Hello newbie here! Got a set of SC armor but no helmet, not sure if I should get a SC helmet or are there better options. Whats your thoughts? Thanks ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobik96 Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 If I didn't already have a helmet, i would go with the Altmans. http://forum.bikerscout.net/index.php?showtopic=13442 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BikerScout007 Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 They get a bad rep and deservedly so, but I think KS makes a good trooping bucket. It's proportions are closer to the screen used one, it's light ABS and it's not expensive. It does need a bit to make it look accurate, but it is a good start and better, IMHO, than the SC or MLC.

Bugz Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Did I miss the thread on the needed KS fixes? I can't see anything on it?..... NVR mind, it just appeared pinned.... I hate my phone sometimes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BikerScout007 Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Off the top of my head: Visor bolts need to be changed Decals need to be changed Snout needs to be changed Mesh needs to be removed from earholes and the inside needs to be blackened with paint or gaffers tape The plastic trim they add to the bottom needs to be removed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bugz Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Excellent, and this is from the get go? Or those are just Lancer fixes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BikerScout007 Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Excellent, and this is from the get go? Or those are just Lancer fixes? The KS as-is will pass basic, but why not be the best you can be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bugz Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 I can't afford to be the BEST I can be, just more like a knockoff lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdraider Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Forgive my newbie-ness, but why not buy the kits from SC or KS and fix the issues from the get go? Are they hard to fit together? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No they aren't. It's a few things up front that will save you heartache in the long run Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
