New experience: today I had my first trip on the copilot's seat. It is still winter here and the wind was blowing...
A completely different feeling to drive or to get driven. I felt much more wind when not driving myself. As a driver I concentrate on the road, as a copilot I recognize the exposure to the environment much more. As a result of this trip my wife will definitely wear a full face helmet when we cross the Grandes Alpes later this year. Schuberth C3 is the solution for us. Several seasons experience on the motorbike and felt very comfortable all time.

Several seasons experience on the motorbike and felt very comfortable all time. I did this recently too (when the dealer was testing my car to experience a problem I had). I also noticed the wind. The biggest thing though was the lack of footrest. There is too much space in the passenger footwell and nothing to brace yourself on. Could be quite dangerous if you submarine under the seatbelt on heavy braking I think

Is this a 3 or a 4wheeler?
Better to race with a helmet...

Better to race with a helmet... Is it one of the Mini engined 3 wheelers they used to rig for racing in sidecar events until they got banned?

Ouch - that is a fantastic action shot and hopefully nothing but bruised ego to show for it. That does look like a mini sump and remote right enough.

Just finished to customize 2 helmets to fit with my Super Dry edition   The Helmets where without an CE homologation but a great quality and made in the exact way like in the 50ies. That sayed there is no helmet obligation for the 3 Wheeler in Luxembourg
